Rupture Discs
A rupture disc (also known as a rupture disk or bursting disc), is designed to provide a leak-tight seal within a pipe or vessel, until the internal pressure rises to a predetermined level. At that point the rupture disc bursts preventing damage to the equipment from overpressure. Fike offers a complete line of cost-effective rupture discs, holders and customer pressure relief devices which are compliant with global code regulations and designed to meet or exceed industry requirements for performance, reliability, and quality.
