About Seller: Harwood Engineering Company has been involved in the design and production of pressure components and systems since 1947. Our focus is on containing, generating, piping, valving, controlling, and measuring flow and pressure at extremely high levels for liquids and gases. Initially offering commercial equipment for pressures up to 200,000 psi in 1947, we became the leading supplier of equipment exceeding 45,000 psi in the United States. Over the years, we pioneered the "Controlled Clearance" principle, which has become the standard for high-pressure primary standards worldwide, reaching up to 30 kbar. Currently, we are developing primary force standards using a variant of this principle.
For the past five decades, we have manufactured equipment capable of producing pure isostatic pressures up to 430,000 psi at both room and elevated temperatures. Additionally, we produce presses that can generate up to 10,000 tons of quasihydrostatic pressures. Our equipment is essential for various applications, including the manufacturing of diamonds and research in pure physics, geophysics, and geochemistry. Due to the specialized nature of our market, we focus on custom solutions tailored to individual customer specifications, requiring direct and personal communication with our clients. Those interested in high-pressure activities will find ample recognition of our expertise through publications in the field and our own articles.
