Interpipe has launched production of a new niche pipe product for the oil and gas market
The Ukrainian industrial company INTERPIPE has mastered the production of tubing with Teflon sealing rings (PTFE), which allowed it to strengthen its competitive position in the oil and gas market. This is reported by the company's press service.
The special rings were purchased in the USA and integrated into Interpipe's production process. The threading was carried out at the Interpipe Niko TUBE site. To implement the project, the company implemented a special technology, in particular, it used a tool for cutting grooves in rings.
As the company explains, such rings are used to increase the resistance of pipes to external pressure and as an additional seal for internal pressure. They extend the service life of products and are provided by API standards for certain types of connections.
