There was a discussion on the old NW Designs rebreather email list about the McMaster Carr bellowses and I was assured that they would not work.

Have you actually used these with success?

Thanks in advance

I'm using them in a proto i'm building now....there are about 40 different styles / materials for bellows in McMaster carr and I'm testing 3 different materials now. Two of the materials I have been testing have been working well. I have been told that there is a specific part number for the proper bellow, but I haven't had much luck getting my hands on it.

Been doing a lot of research on the bellows, try doing a search for Hypalon Bellows. This is the coating on the bellows that the Rebreather RB80 has. I can't help you a whole lot on sizing though.
