Industrial Rubber's Casing Swivel
is designed for use in areas where rotating wall cleaners (sometimes called
scratchers)
are employed to clean the walls of the hole to prevent channeling during the cementing
operation and the necessity of going back in with a squeeze cementing
job.
The Industrial Rubber Casing
Swivel is engineered to be trouble-free and to
eliminate
the problems often encountered with other casing swivels.
The unique swivel design
has four rows of ball bearing with races evenly spaced in the swivel housing
and five "O" rings evenly spaced in the housing.
The even spacing of the bearings provides the strength and stability to
overcome the "drag pressures" which result when the cementing head, manifold
and other equipment mounted above the swivel tend to tilt the swivel
off-center.
This design
eliminates the problems of binding and galling.
The "O" rings provide a positive seal in
job after job when simple preventative maintenance procedures are followed. Each ball
bearing race is serviced by a grease zerk, and on the opposite side of swivel housing from
each grease zerk is a bleed port capped with an Allen-head set screw.
Pumping the swivel full of grease
sets up opposing pressures between the "O" rings to off-set pressures
encountered during the cementing operation.
This design also provides easy maintenance and extends the
usability of the swivel far beyond that of conventional casing swivels.
The swivel can be cleaned without dismantling. After each
cementing job, the set screw is removed from the bleed port and grease is pumped through
the grease zerk until the returns out of the bleed port are clean.
After re-capping the
bleed port, IRI's Casing Swivel is ready for the next job!
