Quality
Certifications
The compounds used for the production of gaskets are diverse and have different technical characteristics.
Choosing the right material is crucial.
In more demanding or critical applications, there are also regulations/certifications that must be verified by a specific entity.
O-ring AQL
Il sistema di qualità impiegato da Sixten per l'analisi e l'identificazione di eventuali difettosità ai anelli O-ring in gomma NBR viene effettuato con un sistema conforme alla normativa AQL 1.5.
Si consiglia, durante la fase di assemblaggio, che l'operatore effettui un controllo visivo del particolare.
