The Situation
The manufacturer of specialty Oil & Gas fracking equipment was losing market share. They needed their equipment to function at higher temperatures and depth, and increase volume flow without increasing package size. They were unable to achieve this using their existing sealing compounds and designs.
The Ask
Darcoid was tasked with proposing a compound which could meet their application requirements
The Solution
Darcoid facilitated engineering and FEA support to optimize compound performance under higher pressures. A new compound was developed to exceed industry temperature limits by 50° F while resisting chemical attack. Custom molded profiles were designed for multiple size configurations.
The Success
Our customer gained a performance differentiator that allowed them to gain significant market share
