Tapered Bellows

Tapered bellows are widely used in cameras and optical applications. These are typically made of a polyurethane coated nylon, paper or leatherette materials. They are suitable for applications where a light-seal is required, but can be manufactured to protect against high temperatures and pressures, as well. At Nabell USA Corp, we make tapered bellows for various industries including Scientific, Industrial, Camera and Optical. Size is rarely an issue for our tapered bellows engineers.
