Engineered for extremes
NBR BOP 75S
Read the code: NBR, BOP duty (blowout preventers), 75 Shore A, S for sulfur cure, recipe 01.
Development grade. The values below are design targets, not measured results. Each target becomes a typical value, with the number of lots and the test report behind it, as testing is completed.
A 75 Shore A NBR for annular BOP packing units and other large elements in oil-based mud: high elongation, tear strength and fatigue life for repeated closures on pipe of different sizes.

Qualification plan
The grade code says what this compound is designed for. This table says what it has passed: a duty is claimed only once its report is on file.
| Test | Standard or method | Conditions | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Drilling fluid ageing | In-house method, published with results | Oil-based and synthetic mud at 90 °C | Planned |
| Fatigue | ISO 133 (DeMattia) | Crack growth | Planned |
| Closure testing | API 16A, with an OEM or rebuilder | On the packing unit design | Planned |
Design targets are the values the compound is designed to reach. They are not measured results and they are not a warranty. Release limits apply to lots once the recipe is approved. The grade code says what the compound is designed for; the qualification plan says what it has passed. Confirm suitability in your own application and fluids.
