Solutions for industrial fluids in high performance plastic parts
Fluid Handling systems, mainly Oil & Gas or chemical industries, require parts resistant to harsh environments, with high temperature, high pressure, high wear and corrosion. High performance plastics overcome all constraints met in the most extreme environments. New compounds enable solutions at the forefront of efficiency requested every day, and even tomorrow.
Assets of high performance polymers in oil & gas and chemical industries
For such demands, oil & gas or chemical industry heavily rely on high performance plastics, especially, PTFE, PEEK as well as PFA or PCTFE.
Our products shows optimal properties, such as:
- Excellent resistance in harsh chemical environments (organic and inorganic)
- Exceptional shock, toughness and abrasion resistance (mechanical and thermal)
- Extended product life
- Continuous service temperature from -250° up to 315°C (-420° up to 600°F) depending on material
- Outstanding dimensional stability even under high pressure
- Good flammability rating
3P develops solutions for petrochemical pumps and valves
3P’s solutions are especially assessed in pumps and valves for the petrochemical industry, where its own designed compounds improve longevity and efficiency of equipments. In pumps, feedback of users have shown efficiency gain up to 7%, not to mention the lowered maintenance.
Keyturn solutions are preferred for the best quality and trust in final products. However, semi-finished products can be supplied to answer rapid needs. In this case, a stock of common products can directly machined on site.
The trust of our customers has led 3P to develop its own range of material. Along with standard materials that have proven their efficiency over time, 3P develops proprietary compounds and composites. Inspired by our customers they answer the new needs of the industry: cryogenic temperature, low gas permeability, vibration reduction are some of the challenges we answer daily.

3P: solutions complying with FHS standards
For oil & gas pumps especially, solutions provided by 3P are also listed in the API 610 11th edition. API 610 is a pump standard for centrifugal pumps in the petroleum, petrochemical, and natural gas industries, put forward by API, American Petroleum Institute, an organization that develops technical standards for oil and natural gas industries. Such standard are references for all activity worldwide.
