Expert Support & High-Performance Components for Alternative Fuels

Quality components are fundamental for maintaining your safety, performance, and credibility across the energy market. But quality components alone will not help you achieve the consistency necessary for long-term success. To sustain your success, you need a supplier that not only provides high-performance components but also offers tailored and comprehensive support that empowers you to improve your system and increase your impact on the industry.

Alternative fuel technologies are helping buses, trucks, and other vehicles operate more cleanly and efficiently than ever before. With these advances come other challenges, however. Building fluid systems for applications involving the storage, transfer, and use of pressurized, potentially volatile, small-molecule fluids requires the use of components with advanced performance capabilities. It also requires a strong understanding of materials science, fluid system design best practices, and global alternative fuel industry certifications, standards, and approval processes.

Products

All our standard products and custom components are backed by the Swagelok Limited Lifetime Warranty. Hydrogen fuel cell, natural gas, or other synthetic fuels (ethanol, methanol, biodiesel, etc.) on-vehicle fluid systems and the infrastructure used to fuel them require high-integrity system components that effectively contain high-pressure, small-molecule gases. We provide OEMs with high-performance fluid system products specifically engineered for the toughest challenges in the specialty fuels markets. Our components are designed to deliver the seal tightness, grip strength, thermal performance, corrosion resistance, ductility, and ease of assembly needed to make alternative-fuel vehicles and infrastructure viable.  
 
Avoid particulate contaminants leading to off-spec products, inaccurate analyzer readings, or other problems downstream with filters designed to preserve the integrity of your processes.
Whether you need fittings for corrosive environments, extreme temperatures, or high pressure, we have a variety of reliable, leak-tight products for use in chemical processing.
