Hammer Union Seals are essential static seals used in High-Pressure hammer union-style piping systems, predominantly in the Oil and Gas Industry. These seals play a crucial role in preventing leaks and maintaining system integrity under extreme conditions. Hammer unions, which connect pipes or hoses in High-Pressure environments, require robust Sealing Solutions that can withstand high pressure, extreme temperatures, and corrosive substances, including sour gas operations.
Hammer Union Seals are typically classified by size, which refers to their Inside Diameter (ID). Additional key measurements include Outside Diameter (OD) and Height.
Size | ID mm | OD mm | Height mm |
2″ | 2.06” | 2.81″ | 0.57″ |
3″ | 3.15″ | 4.18″ | 0.54″ |
4″ | 4.19″ | 5.18″ | 0.54″ |
Choosing the right material for Hammer Union Seals is crucial for ensuring durability and performance. Here are the top materials used in manufacturing these seals:
1.Vertex H – HNBR (Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber)
2.Vertex FC – FKM (Fluorocarbon Rubber)
3.Novum P – PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene)
4.Cerulean N – NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber)
Hammer Union Seals come in different types, each designed for specific applications and performance requirements:
PTFE Hammer Union Seal – Excellent choice for chemical resistance and high-temperature environments.
