Abstract: A modular pinion shaft that includes a tubular member having a first end and a second end, a first pinion gear member secured to the first end by a plurality of fasteners, and a second pinion gear member secured to the first end by a plurality of fasteners. Gear teeth of each of the pinion gear members are aligned by one or more indexing members disposed between the tubular member and each pinion gear member.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to retainer nut locking apparatus and methods for fluid ends, and associated components thereof. In one implementation, a method of operating a fluid end includes installing a retainer nut assembly on a fluid end body by turning a retainer nut in an installation direction and into a bore formed in the fluid end body. The retainer nut has a first surface that faces away from the fluid end body and a second surface that faces that fluid end body. The method also includes rotating a locking tab in a locking direction and into contact with an inner surface of the fluid end body. The locking direction is opposite of the installation direction. The locking tab is disposed inside the bore and adjacent to the second surface of the retainer nut.

Abstract: A plunger clamp is disclosed that includes a body comprising a first end and a second end, wherein the body comprises a threaded portion that facilitates coupling and decoupling of the first and second ends, and wherein the first end or the second end includes a plurality of blind holes formed on a perimeter thereof that extend in a direction orthogonal to a longitudinal axis of the body.

Abstract: A plunger clamp is disclosed that includes a body comprising a first end, a second end, and a clamp connector disposed between the first and second ends, wherein the clamp connector comprises a threaded portion that interfaces with one or both of the first and second ends facilitating relative rotation with, and separation from, the first and second ends and the clamp connector.

Abstract: A pump system includes a first pump and a second pump each having a plunger assembly. The plunger assembly includes a crosshead, a plunger, and a sleeve. The sleeve at least partially surrounds the plunger and an end of the crosshead. The sleeve is configured to create a fluid seal between the plunger and the crosshead.
