Packer seals
Oil drilling equipment uses a specific seal material for drilling piping called a packer seal. Packer seals need base resistance and durability against various organic compounds contained in crude oil at high temperatures and pressures. Daikin’s amine-resistant Fluoro elastomers fit this application.
