Cogsdill API Ring Groove and Seat Pocket

Cogsdill ZX for "Ring-Grooving" Generally, where two metallic surfaces meet, a closely dimensioned groove needs to be cut into the face of a pipe flange. Together with a gasket, a groove helps create a seal between the parts. The groove requires both a close tolerance and high-quality surface finish that must be free of indentations, score marks, tool and chatter marks. This is even more critical in oil and gas components where there needs to be an absolute trust in the process security and confidence that the seal does not fail under extreme pressure and/or remote locations. It is important, therefore, that the groove meets the design specifications set out by the industry-standard American Petroleum Institute (API) – including BX, R and RX styles – to cope with a range of high pressure and high-temperature scenarios, in order to be suitable for environments like deep-sea applications. Cogsdill are proud to partner with leading global manufacturers of Christmas Trees, Wellhead Assemblies, Hydraulic Fracturing Pumps and other components – whether on land, offshore or subsea. From exploration to drilling, pumping and fracking, our clients all share the same requirements for proven precision tooling. https://lnkd.in/dzkZsAs #oilgas #fracking #cogsdill
