Oil and Gas Seals

Resistance To Rapid Gas Decompression

Kalrez® perfluoroelastomer parts stand up to severe down-hole conditions from high pressures and temperatures, to aggressive sour gas and corrosive fluids. Down-hole conditions can deteriorate elastomers rapidly. Even under extreme conditions of pressure, heat and manmade chemicals, Kalrez® oil and gas seals have held up and remained virtually unchanged.

Kalrez® has been field-proven across the industry in such applications as:

oil and gas seals  
  • Tubing-to-packer seals
  • Subsurface safety valves
  • Logging boots
  • Casing tie-back seals
  • Survey tool seals
  • Slip-joint seals
