Hinged Welded Bow Spring Turbolizer
Oil Baron Supply’s Hinged Welded Bow Spring Turbolizer induces a spiral flow pattern in the slurry thereby increasing displacement efficiency. It is ideal for deviated and horizontal wells and improves the cleaning action of drilling fluids, distributes the cement slurry into well bore irregularities, and minimises channeling. Deflector blades, which are fitted onto Standard Bow Springs, help induce turbulence in the cement slurry during pumping operations.
The blades or fins are constructed from heat-treated spring steel under special
conditions that meet API 10D specifications. The fin direction can be adjusted both
clockwise and anticlockwise to create uniform displacement and the spring action
ensures flexibility that minimises damage while moving downhole. The Bow Springs are
strongly welded to the end collar ensuring ultimate strength and uniformity in every weld. The End Collar is also designed with a reinforcing rib stamped inside to give optimal structural toughness and a stop device. Further strength is created by the integral hinge that is able to undergo extreme stress. All products undergo a special iron phosphate coating process to inhibit corrosion and are then coated with a special polyester powder.
They can be shipped in half assembled condition for to reduce shipping and storage
costs and are available in 3 ½” to 20” sizes.
Any special sizes or combinations can be made available upon request.
