AGGRESSIVE FLUIDS E
THE EXPLOSIVE DECOMPRESSION

In the oil and gas sector, maximum precision is required from all seals used in order to guarantee safety. Therefore these gaskets must be highly elastic, with very high chemical and mechanical resistance, and precise. They can be bi-component, rubber-metal, over-molded, and rubber-canvas.

Given the extreme working conditions, the oil and gas sector poses major challenges to sealing systems in the choice of material to be used.

Our company places safety first. Therefore in the production of these articles, it uses only compounds approved according to recent European and world standards (EN 549).

The critical aspect in this sector is represented by the phenomenon of EXPLOSIVE DECOMPRESSION. During the passage of the gases, a sudden change in the pressure level occurs in a short time with consequent damage to the gasket and a possible explosion of the system. This phenomenon is much feared by oil and gas plant producers and operators.
