Fike Launches ATLAS Rupture Disc

Blue Springs, MO, October 19, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Fike announces the expansion of its G2 Technology with the introduction of the versatile ATLAS line of rupture discs.

“G2 is a patented, state-of-the-art technology used to manufacture rupture discs without the use of hard score tooling. The process builds rupture discs that are free of stress zones that can fatigue and offers premium performance in all facets of rupture disc technology,” explained Michael Zitariuk, Global Product Manager - Pressure Relief. “The ATLAS series offers even higher pressure capability than was previously available, further extending the capabilities of the G2 line of products.“

Consistent with other G2 Technology discs such as the AXIUS® and AXIUS® SC, the benefits of the ATLAS rupture disc include a 95% operating ratio, liquid or vapor service, back pressure resistance and unrivaled cycling capability.

“The addition of the ATLAS series of discs gives Fike’s G2 Technology products one of the widest range of burst pressures available in a 95% operating ratio rupture disc,” explained Zitariuk. “And the advanced automation of the G2 manufacturing process significantly increases consistency and provides for fast, economical delivery time. With ATLAS you get a superior product every time …and faster!”
