Default flex coupler--where to get high quality

I'm building a new exhaust for another build and I want to use a flex coupler, but I want a nice one made of 304 SS both in the mesh and the ends to mate up to the rest of my stainless system. Anybody know of the best quality ones? Don't really want Chinese if I can avoid it; and Vibrant's have mild steel ends.
Just like this one by known high quality:

appreciate any experiences you have and great sources. For my particular build I need this design; not particularly helpful to recommend an alternative way to handle. Thanks.

There's a company called Dynaflex that mainly does commercial and truck stuff, but they do the smaller sizes for industrial smaller engines. You might give them a shot.

I bought mine from Reid Washbon racing. They are the bellow style flex coupler and are very well made from 304 stainless.

How much do these bellow style couplers flex compared to the wire mesh? I need the most flex possible.

SPD Inconel Bellows....bellow types do not have much flex compared to mesh style.
