Vertex FC 11: High Pressure & RGD NORSOK M710 FKM Seals
Vertex FC 11 is a high-performance fluorocarbon elastomer (FKM) specially engineered for Rapid Gas Decompression (RGD) resistance and certified to the NORSOK M-710 Edition 3 standard. RGD occurs when a pressurized gas is released quickly, causing the gases trapped in a material to expand, resulting in system damage. This compound offers improved dynamic mechanical properties and additional certifications such as NACE TM0187-2011 (for use in sour fluid environments) and NACE TM0192-2012 (for use in carbon dioxide decompression environments).
