Plastic products for oil and gas applications
Don Horne
Ensinger semi-finished products made with VICTREX® PEEK polyetherether-ketone resin are ideal for highly demanding oil and gas applications. Ensinger's range of high performance and engineering plastic materials offer a variety of properties that benefit the oil and gas sector. Fiber-reinforced grades are suitable for use in parts exposed to high static loads over long periods in high-temperature conditions. Typical applications such as sheaves, hydrophone housing, seals, back-up rings, bushes and gears can benefit from the weight reductions, corrosion resistance, thermal de-coupling and minimized noise emissions provided by these materials.
