GP:50 Model RDEB Rupture Disks
Designed for Over-Pressure Protection of Extruders & Injection Molders
GP:50 Rupture Disks, also known as burst plugs or blow-out plugs, are used for emergency pressure relief of an extruder or injection molder. They are designed to instantaneously rupture at a specific pressure. This provides reliable relief in applications where rapid pressure buildup can occur, protecting both personnel and equipment.

The design assembly consists of a threaded tubular body with a rupture disk soldered onto the process end. The body is 300 series stainless steel and the disk itself is inconel material. The assembly is mounted directly into the molding equipment through a pressure port or thermocouple well where critical pressures occur.


Features:

  • One piece construction
  • 300 Series stainless steel body material (other materials available)
  • Inconel disk material standard
  • Burst ratings 750 to 15,000 psig
  • Burst tolerance: ± 10%
  • 0% manufacturing range
  • Short models are 1" nominal length (1.82" OAL) with slotted head
  • Standard models are 6" nominal length (6.70" OAL) with 5/8" hex head
  • Standard assemblies in stock
  • Re-disking available

    Also Available:

    Melt Pressure Kits , Melt Pressure Transducers , Temperature/Pressure Transducers
