Abstract: A fluid end assembly of a hydraulic fluid pump includes a housing having a bore, a removable valve cover closing the bore, and a retainer engaging the bore. The retainer includes a set screw bore that extends from a first side of the retainer to a second side of the retainer, opposite the first side. The fluid end assembly further includes a set screw. The set screw is threaded into the set screw bore from the first side of the retainer. The set screw is not removable from the second side of the retainer. The first side of the retainer is positioned adjacent to the valve cover.

Abstract: A well servicing pump includes a power end and a fluid end operably coupled to the power end. The fluid end includes a casing that defines at least one pumping chamber, the pumping chamber at least partially defined by a spherical wall, and a first cylindrical wall extending along a first axis and defining a portion of a power end bore, the first cylindrical wall intersecting the spherical wall to define a first interface edge. A second cylindrical wall extends along a second axis and defines a portion of a discharge bore, the second cylindrical wall intersecting the spherical wall to define a second interface edge, and a third cylindrical wall extends along a third axis and defines a portion of a suction bore, the third cylindrical wall intersecting the spherical wall to define a third interface edge, wherein the first axis, the second axis, and the third axis are arranged between 100 and 140 degrees with respect to one another.

Abstract: A fluid end assembly of a hydraulic fluid pump includes a housing having an axial bore, a removable valve cover closing the axial bore, and a retainer engaging the axial bore. The retainer includes a central opening. The fluid end assembly further includes a threaded drive member positioned within the central opening and operable to apply a preload against the retainer.
