The Challenge
Prevent cold welding, galling and failure of threaded connections, tightened to extremely high torque levels
The Solution
Replace a traditional paste, which was being squeezed out of the high-torque connections and causing thread failures, with ‘MRO 7001 Cu ANTISIEZE’ a more durable solid-film lubricant.
The Result
WHY MRO...
‘MRO 7001 Cu ANTISIEZE’ a high-viscosity paste forms a continuous lubricating film with high-contact adhesion that withstands the extreme forces of industrial applications including drilling application. It stays in place under extremely high tightening forces, provides excellent sealing and aids component disassembly without thread deformation.
APPLICATION CASE HISTORY OIL DRILLING CONTRACTOR
PROBLEM
Oil drilling contractor had unacceptable failure rates in steel threaded connections on its steerable rotary drilling equipment. Each time the failed drilling sections required removal for repair at a specialty machine shop, the firm incurred extra costs for labor, shipping and re-facing the damaged threads, suffered production downtime and also lost the critical sections for up to a week.
CUSTOMERS BENEFIT:
This effective problem solution with ‘MRO 7001 Cu ANTISIEZE’ has made a major difference in boosting system reliability, cutting costs and maintaining production schedules.
