Holders are a synergistic partner of the rupture disk. Typically, they consist of a machined base (inlet) flange and a holddown (outlet) flange in which the rupture disk is seated in place.

Various holder designs are available, including pre-torqued, insert, double disk, screw type, and sanitary ferrule quick releases.
