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 packing nut locking apparatus and methods for fluid ends, and associated components thereof. In one implementation a fluid end apparatus includes a fluid end body having an outer surface, and one or more stay rods disposed at least partially externally to the outer surface of the fluid end body. The fluid end also includes one or more packing nuts, and a lock assembly. The lock assembly includes a first block in contact with the one or more stay rods, and a second block in contact with the one or more packing nuts.

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 lock assembly for retainer nuts on fluid ends includes a frame. The frame includes one or more first openings formed therethrough. The lock assembly also includes one or more inserts. Each insert of the one or more inserts is disposed in a first opening of the one or more first openings formed in the frame. The lock assembly also includes one or more insert retainers each having a locking tab protruding into one of one or more slots of each insert to limit rotation of the insert about a longitudinal axis of the insert. The one or more insert retainers are fastened to the frame.
