Oil & Gas

Built for Extreme Conditions.
Designed for Reliability.

Oil and gas environments demand materials that can withstand extreme temperatures, high pressure, chemical exposure and continuous mechanical stress. From upstream extraction to downstream processing and transport systems, performance and reliability are critical for safe and efficient operations.

At Altius Polymers, we supply high performance engineering plastics used across oil and gas applications. Our materials are designed to deliver durability, chemical resistance and long service life in some of the most demanding industrial environments.

Materials

Materials Used Across Oil & Gas Facilities

Oil and gas operations require materials that deliver long term performance in demanding environments, withstanding chemicals, wear, pressure and continuous operation.

PTFE

Ideal for seals, gaskets and valve components requiring exceptional chemical resistance and low friction in demanding industrial environments.

PEEK

A high performance engineering plastic used for precision components exposed to high temperatures, pressure and aggressive chemicals.

PVDF

Suitable for chemical handling systems, pipework components and fabricated parts where long term chemical resistance is essential.

Polypropylene (PP)

Commonly used for tanks, liners and fabricated components handling corrosive chemicals and industrial process fluids.

PVC

Used for pipework, ducting, protective panels and fabricated components requiring reliable chemical and corrosion resistance.

HDPE

A durable material suitable for chemical tanks, pipe supports, liners and fabricated components exposed to harsh environments.

UHMWPE

Excellent wear resistance and low friction properties make it ideal for wear pads, guides and material handling components.

Nylon

Strong and durable, making it suitable for bushes, rollers, gears and load bearing mechanical components.

Acetal (POM)

Used for precision machined components, bearings and valve parts requiring excellent dimensional stability and low moisture absorption.

Solid Aluminium

Suitable for equipment panels, structural components, signage and protective enclosures requiring strength and corrosion resistance.

Polycarbonate

A durable glazing material used for sight guards, safety screens and protective viewing panels requiring high impact resistance.

Material Selection

Choosing the Right Material

Oil and gas environments demand materials that can withstand harsh operating conditions, chemical exposure and continuous mechanical stress. Selecting the right engineering plastic depends on factors such as temperature, pressure, wear resistance and the specific application.

We can help you compare materials based on:

- Chemical resistance
- Mechanical strength
- Wear and abrasion resistance
- Pressure and temperature performance
- Low friction properties
- Moisture resistance
- Dimensional stability
- Fabrication requirements
