LIBERTY, Mo. - March 11, 2014 - PRLog -- Continental Disc Corporation announces the launch of its newest product: the WMP™ Welded Muffled Plug Rupture Disc Assembly.

The WMP™Rupture Disc Assembly is a single use unit that is threaded into a pressure system.

It is designed for applications which discharge to atmosphere at the rupture disc location.

The WMP™ Rupture Disc Assembly is a solid metal tension acting rupture disc that is welded to a threaded outlet body and inlet ring. The outlet body has a hexagon shape head with six holes in the side of the hexagon to reduce reaction forces after the rupture disc has burst.
