Details

Designed specifically for blow-out preventer systems on drilling rigs

Machined components are manufactured using solid steel bar stock
Stainless steel retaining rings and springs maximize corrosion resistance and extend service life.
Steel components are plated using ROHS Compliant Zinc Nickel
Red powder coated components and external O-rings for easy BOP service identification
Blow-out Preventer (BOP) coupling critical seals are severe service FKM
PTFE Anti-Extrusion ring protects main coupling valve seal from dynamic impulse pressure damage

Rated Flow ∆P=21.75 PSI

BOP couplings have been fire tested and Lloyd's certified to 700°C (1300°F) in accordance with API 16D. Certificate available upon request.
