A hard working addition to any crew. Consider the old traditional method of pipe handling. It's tough, dangerous work and its hard on expensive drill pipe and tool joints. The Iron Roughneck is a safer, and efficient system for tripping pipe. A combination of the proven hydraulic spinning wrench and the hydraulic torque wrench, it provides fast, accurate stabbing and quick, controlled spin up. Pipe can be torque to precise, consistent values without creating bending stresses in the drill string. That alone con save you a lot of tool joints and drill pipe.
The Iron Roughneck is a welcome addition to any rig crew. Rig floor hazards caused by spinning chain, the tong and the tong lines are eliminated.
How the Iron Roughneck goes to work for you. The Iron Roughneck can handle it. Fast controlled spin up and spin out of 2⅞ inch drill pipe through 8 inch in drill collars. Precise, consistent torquing of 4 through 9 inch tool joint.
The Iron Roughneck is hydraulic powered, so speed control is smooth and variable. You can adjust for fast spin up for "walking in" drill collar. This minimizes cross-threading, "thread-burn" and permits proper spin up of the engaged threads - all critical factors in the longevity of expensive tool joints. A fully reversible feature permits pipe to be spun out instead of rotating out with the table, avoiding possible damage to the wall cake and eliminating hazardous floor conditions.
Nour, consider this equipment to be rebuilt by JT Oilfield Mfg./JT 4 Int'l at a much lower cost.
