Posted on by Sara Springer

Posted on by Sara Springer

Buna, EPDM, and FKM valve stems are good for some applications, but for the most challenging applications, they just don’t cut it. They need to constantly be monitored and replaced.

In all applications, they are outlasting the standard stems, in some cases by 3-4 times the life span.

This isn’t helping US companies as they look to implement CIP into their operations.
