Continental Disc Corp. also manufacturers rupture-disc devices for a variety of process industries, including chemical, petrochemical, aerospace, electronics, and others.

A new rupture-disc assembly for wind-turbine hydraulic brakes protects equipment from damage and down time in the event of overpressure. Intended for the hydraulic brakes and yaw brakes of wind turbines, the rupture-disc assembly, model CD31179 provides accurate and leak-free overpressure relief for the control valve and hydraulic accumulator system. The hydraulic braking device, from Continental Disc Corp, Liberty, Mo, comes in a range of sizes, materials, and burst pressure ratings to protect wind turbine equipment.
