Gas Valves and Oxygen Fittings

The lubricants used in gas valves and oxygen fittings must be totally safe, have a long service life, and be environmentally friendly. Oxygen for a diver must be kept pure and natural gas is an essential part of our energy program in industry as well as in the private home.

Exotic mixtures of different gasses need lubricants that are compatible and do not contaminate the gas itself.

Some lubricants are designed to deal with special problems and wide variations in climatic conditions, in the use of natural and town gas as well as propane and butane gases, where gas valves are installed in building installations, gas distributing mains, and gas pipelines.

Oxygen valves and gas fittings must also have the added safety factor that there is no contamination of the gas from the lubricants, which might compromise the health and safety of the user, whether he or she is in hospital or working several meters underwater.
