X-ray and metal detectable seals from Daemar: their key benefits

Metal detectable O-rings are available from Daemar.

Daemar Inc. is the top source of essential components for industry in Canada, with an inventory unmatched by other suppliers. For example, the company offers X-ray and metal detectable seals that work well as substitutes for sanitary gaskets and O-rings in many tasks, creating tight seals and connections. O-rings and sanitary gaskets help stop leaks and keep workplaces clean, but they can fray and break, entering pipelines and contaminating products. But these Daemar seals prevent this frequent problem.

Preventing product loss from contamination

Product contamination is expensive, which is why Daemar offers this alternative sealing solution. These seals are made out of material that X-rays, metal detectors, or both can detect. Among the examples are O-rings made of Buna, EPDM, FKM, Tuf-Steel, silicone, and other types of elastomeric compounds. These seals are particularly recommended for tasks in which a process or large product batch can be ruined by even the smallest level of contamination. Industries that make the best use of these sealing solutions include food processing, dairy, biotech, and pharmaceuticals, all of which need stringent sanitary procedures during manufacturing processes.

Users get a wide range of key benefits from these X-ray and metal detectable seals in their pipelines. One major advantage is the ease of detecting lost elastomeric fragments by using an inline metal detector, which triggers an alarm to alert the quality-assurance department to the problem immediately. Another benefit is the prevention of product loss due to contamination, elimination of expensive product recalls, and prevention of further distribution of contaminated products, which stops any possible contamination from reaching the user.

These X-ray and metal detectable seals also provide the ability to withstand extremely high temperatures and to operate in heavy-duty mechanical and microbial applications. They come in standard sizing for use in manufacturing equipment, while offering material that is available for use in screens, sheets, vale stems, filler boots, hygienic seals, and other related items.

This lineup of components from Daemar helps users ensure the safety and integrity of all of their products, so their businesses can save money while working with confidence.
