Hardide CVD Tungsten Carbide Coating Extends Life of Elastomeric Seals and Enables High Temperature Seal Design
Elastomeric seals in rotating or reciprocating equipment suffer from premature wear in abrasive applications and in some cases can limit the maximum operating temperatures of down hole tools. The newly-developed Hardide CVD Tungsten Carbide coatings can help prolong seal life and increase equipment maximum operating temperatures.
