Optimize the service life of your seals in extreme environments

Operations in harsh environments – such as offshore splash zones, high-chloride areas, and aggressive chemical processing – require reliable seals with a long service life. We have frequently helped customers with customized sleeves, seals and fittings in stainless steel quality like Super Duplex for these extreme conditions.

From now on, you can find components for rectangular sealing solutions, such as the Roxtec Wedge 120 and the Roxtec Stayplate 120, in super stainless steel in our standard product portfolio. You can find them displayed under their respective product sections on roxtec.com.

“When lifetime performance, safety, and durability matter, duplex steel delivers the strength and corrosion protection required for critical offshore HVDC infrastructure,” says Matthias Brück, Global Segment Manager Wind Power at Roxtec.

Corrosion class CX

Note that we can supply all our stainless-steel frames in super stainless steel. Super stainless steel, such as 254 SMO (EN 1.4547 / UNS S31254) and 2507 Super Duplex (EN 1.4410 / UNS S32750), has typically the corrosion class CX and can significantly reduce maintenance costs and the risk of corrosion-related failures in demanding applications.

“On an offshore oil and gas asset, corrosion is not only a maintenance issue. It is an asset integrity issue. Super Duplex gives the durability and corrosion resistance needed to protect critical barriers and secure reliable performance throughout the asset lifecycle,” says Morten Gustavsen, Global Segment Manager Marine & Offshore at Roxtec.
