WHY AC&M SEALS ARE TRUSTED IN THE ATOMIC ENERGY FIELD

Posted by AC&M

American Casting & Mfg. supplies seals worldwide to facilities and operations involved with nuclear fuel, nuclear energy, nuclear waste, and the operating facilities dealing with sensitive radioactive materials.

Application of seals for tamper detection in the nuclear/atomic fields ranges from power generating facilities, fuel production, storage, transport of radioactive materials, weapons programs, inspection agencies, handling and storage of nuclear waste, and a host of related operations.

These are some of the most sensitive and tightly controlled functions for security seals in the world. While security and confidentiality mandate that we do not publicly discuss specific users or methods, we can say that AC&M is a supplier to utilities, government agencies, international inspection and control groups, custom material transporters, medical equipment suppliers, and others who operate in this industry.

These seal users are a uniquely protective group, and they trust American Casting & Mfg. to supply their seals for many reasons.
