What is
SimsiteŽ?
SimsiteŽ is a patented structural composite material
offered exclusively
by the Sims Pump Valve Company. It is a graphite combination-fiber
continuously interwoven reinforced composite with phenolic/epoxy
thermoset resin. SimsiteŽ is designed using fibers in an interwoven
bi-directional or tri-directional weave. Continuous fibers provide
the highest strength and flexibility available on the market today.
As a heavy-duty structural composite its characteristics can be
tailored by our patented process to accommodate the required structural
strength of the parts being manufactured.
SimsiteŽ composites stand
up better to corrosive environments, erosion, and cavitation then
metallics or other non-structural composites and will significantly
improve pump performance. Beyond performance, a look at total costs
reveals that SimsiteŽ composites are an exceptional added
value.
An evaluation of maintenance, spare parts, inventory, and energy
usage, shows SimsiteŽ composites to be the best cost option for
most pump applications.

Which one would you choose?

SimsiteŽ's key
benefits are its corrosion and erosion resistance, its
cavitation resistance, its light weight (1/6 the weight of bronze) and
it lasts
3-5 times longer than metallics. For more than 35 years SIMS has
been manufacturing SimsiteŽ pumps, impellers, bearings and rings
of all sizes that exceed the performance of metallics in salt water
and corrosive environments. SimsiteŽ's natural lubricity reduces
wear on motors, bearings, and rings while providing quiet vibration
free operation at a cost that is competitive with bronze. |
