  • Publication number: 20240191827
    Abstract: A thread protection system for a wellbore tubular includes a thread protector and a self-aligning bit. The thread protector has an insert portion at one end and a drive portion at an opposite end. The insert portion is engageable with an end of the wellbore tubular. The drive portion has a central cavity axially positioned about the thread protector and a plurality of pockets radially disposed about the central cavity. The self-aligning bit includes a platform with a central hub and a plurality of fingers extending perpendicularly from a driven side of the platform. The fingers are radially disposed about the central hub. The central hub is slidingly receivable in the central cavity. Each finger has a tapered tip slidingly receivable into the plurality of pockets. The self-aligning bit is rotationally drivable by a driver whereby the thread protector is removably connectable to the wellbore tubular.

  • Patent number: 11473700
    Abstract: A clamp includes first and second bands, a pair of strut attachment legs, a screw, and a screw housing. Each band has a first end and a second end. The first band defines slots extending across a width thereof and disposed adjacent to the second end thereof. Each strut attachment leg is fixed to the first end of one of the bands. The screw housing receives the second ends of the bands and captures the screw while allowing the screw to rotate. The clamp secures a tube to a strut when the clamp is placed over the tube, the strut attachment legs are positioned relative to the strut so that notches in the strut attachment legs receive at least one of the flanges on the strut, and the screw is rotated to draw the first band further into the screw housing and thereby tighten the clamp around the tube.

  • Patent number: 10938174
    Abstract: Torque adapter for a cable connector that expands to fit connector nuts of different sizes. The adapter fits around the cable connector and engages three of the corners of a hex nut with matching recessed regions in its inner surface. It has three slots that receive the other three corners of the connector nut. The adapter is flexible so that the slots may widen to accommodate connector nuts of larger widths. The outer surface may be hexagonal so that a wrench or similar tool may be used to turn the torque adapter.
