There are several metals that have a certain span of flexibility. It depends on the purpose the metal is being used for, and the shape the metal takes on. Aluminum, copper, and sterling silver, all have uses that require some flexibility. Springs made of steel can be considered flexible.

There are three main types of air ducts: sheet metal, pre-insulated, and flexible duct work. Sheet metal air ducts can be made of galvanized steel or aluminum, and may be insulated inside or outside with fiberglass. There are pre-insulated air ducts, which are relatively inexpensive to install, made of fiberglass duct board, polyurethane foam panels, or phenolic foam panels. Air ducts can also be flexible ducts, made of flexible plastic over a wire coil.
Conduit is piping for electrical wiring. Steel conduit is the most common conduit used. It is often left visible in industrial atmospheres and can be seen running to electrical outlets, lighting panels, electrical panels, etc.
A metal vent is often preferred over a masonry chimney due to its lighter weight, easier installation, and lower cost. Metal vents can be more efficient in venting gases due to their smooth interior surfaces, which reduce the risk of creosote buildup. Additionally, metal vents can be more flexible in design, accommodating various configurations and installations. This combination of benefits makes metal vents a popular choice for modern heating systems.

METAL
Flexible is a property of metal and not gases. Argon is a gas and cannot be flexible.
a flexible piece of metal
Yes it is. Rubber can be bend wherelse the metal cannot!
Non-flexible sheet metal piping
Flexible pipes can protect against somemovement.
is it permitted to use flexible metal conduit over 6 ft in length as a grounding means
Of course a paper cup would be more flexible. Nails are hard to bend.
Copper is a metal that can be flexible, shiny, and has a brownish hue. Its natural color is a shiny orange-brown, and it is known for its malleability, making it easy to shape and form into various objects.
No, mercury is not flexible. It is a liquid metal at room temperature, which means it can flow and change shape, but it does not have the ability to flex or bend like a solid material.
