Trelleborg launches the Tran-SECURE™ Fluid Sealing Management Program to provide the Americas’ chemical transportation market with immediate availability of components critical to the maintenance and repair of railcars. Comprising high-performance engineered solutions, including manway and flat gaskets, O-Rings, and valve repair kits, the Tran-SECURE™ Program is backed by Trelleborg’s global resources, local support, and unrivaled material research. Regardless of the commodity transported, customers receive the right seal for their tank car to maximize seal life and minimize maintenance and downtime. Customers also enjoy 24/7 access to Tran-SECURE™ Fluid Sealing Management Program documents, material compatibility charts, training, and online ordering of in-stock repair kits and components through the Chemical Transportation Seals-Shop.
Thijs Menzel, Segment Director, Chemical Transportation, Trelleborg Sealing Solutions, says: “When a tank car requires maintenance, it isn’t on the rails transporting chemicals and other commodities which means the equipment owner and shipper are losing money. To minimize costly downtime, it’s critical that high-quality seals, gaskets, and other valve repair components are available in the right materials for immediate shipment. Through the Tran-SECURE™ Program, we provide that peace of mind to our customers. All of our materials many of which are proprietary formulations and compounds designed to be compatible with a broad range of even the most aggressive chemicals are fully tested and proven to be compliant with industry regulations.”
