API 20E Boltings and Fasteners
TOTOM Services provides specialised bolting and fasteners that comply with the API 20E standard. Each piece is marked with the API 20E monogram, ensuring adherence to industry-written standards and globally accepted management system specifications.
TThe API 20E standard is a comprehensive guide detailing the qualifications, production processes, and documentation required for Alloy and Carbon Steel bolting and fasteners. These standards are crucial for their use in the Petroleum and Natural Gas Industries, particularly in applications involving high pressure and high temperatures.
TWithin this standard, there are specific requirements set out for three levels of bolting specifications (BSL 1-3) and nine bolting types. This approach ensures a wide range of applications are catered for, maintaining safety and efficiency in demanding industrial environments.
Meanwhile, the Subsea Bolt 20E Xylan Coating is a specialised coating applied to API 20E bolting and fasteners to provide additional corrosion protection in harsh subsea environments. The Xylan coating is a proprietary blend of fluoropolymer resins that create a tough, low-friction surface that resists corrosion and chemical attack. This coating is particularly useful in offshore and subsea applications where exposure to seawater and other corrosive substances can cause premature failure of the bolts and fasteners.
TWith the API 20E standard and Subsea Bolt 20E Xylan Coating, the oil and gas industry can ensure the safety and reliability of equipment and materials used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
