Safety clamps are important equipment that is always used during the process of oil drilling and well servicing. The equipment is primarily used as a backup safety mechanism against drill pipe slippage for slips and other gripping devices. It also provides additional control in the case of component failure. There are several types of safety clamps, including Safety clamp type MP , which is used in several positions to provide safe service. Safety clamps are designed in such a manner that the serrated teeth inside the slips will grip the pipe and stabilize and suspend the drill string in the rotary table. However, if the slips don’t have sufficient grip, the pipe could slip and cause major damage, which is why safety clamps were created.  Further, safety clamps are used in conjunction with slips as an extra precaution against costly damaged and lost production time. Safety clamps are manmade using individual, tapered links that are hinged for elasticity. Depending on the type of safety

If you are in the oil industry, you know that tubing power tongs are an essential tool.  Tubing power tongs are devices that are used to grip and turn tubing. They are an essential tool in the oil industry because they allow workers to safely and efficiently connect or disconnect sections of pipe. There are many different types of power tongs, each designed for a specific type of tubing. The most common types of power tongs are those that grip the outside of the tubing (external gripping) and those that grip the inside of the tubing (internal gripping). External gripping power tongs are typically used on smaller diameter tubing, while internal gripping power tongs are better suited for larger diameter tubing. Power tongs can be operated manually or automated, depending on the needs of the application. Automated power tongs offer increased safety and efficiency, and are typically used in applications where high torques are required. Key Functions of Power Tongs In the oil industry, tubi
