Berea, Ohio  (November 17, 2009) NOSHOK announces the availability of Sintered Pressure Snubbers, a simple and cost effective solution to protect expensive instrumentation.

NOSHOK sintered discs are held intact by way of a set screw.  Unlike the competitor’s crimped method, NOSHOK Sintered Snubbers allow easy cleaning and/or replacement of the sintered disc by simply removing the set screw, replacing the disc and then re-inserting the set screw.  This type of built in versatility greatly increases the snubber’s longevity, durability and dependability. Features and benefits of Sintered Snubbers include:

• Increases gauge readability by smoothing out pressure surges, pulsations and spikes
• Eliminates instrument failure due to pressure shock
• Snubbing action is achieved by utilizing a corrosion resistant 316 stainless steel sintered disc
• 5 basic discs are available for each snubber to accommodate specific application needs
• Provides long service life with no moving parts to wear out
• Exotic materials or intermediate disc grades are available on a per order basis
