O.D. 3-3/8", Thread Type 2-13/16"-6Acme-2G, Lift Subs for Perforating Guns
Material
This lift sub is made of superior alloy steel that has been chosen based on excellent strength, tensile properties, and fatigue-resisting capabilities. The metal has been heat-treated to be stronger and tougher and will perform excellently in the toughest of environments. The sub also has a corrosion-resistant coating that will offer durable protection against the corrosives found in well fluids and saltwater and any other chemicals that may be found during the drilling of a deep well.

Production Processes
The manufacturing of the 3-3/8" O.D. Lift Sub follows strict processes that produce the highest quality standards:
1. Forging: The development begins with the forging of the steel alloy, a part of the development of the strength of the material.
2. Precision Machining: The sub goes through CNC machining after the forging operation to realize fine dimension and thread consistency.
3. Thread Cutting: The Acme threads get properly cut in a manner that ensures firm and reliable connections with no leakage at higher pressures.
4. Heat Treatment: The sub also receives a heat treatment that further enhances the hardness of the sub and wear and fatigue strength.
5. Corrosion Resistance: The final component includes the application of a corrosion-resistant coating that will protect the sub against the aggressive downhole environment.
Quality Test & Inspection
Each Lift Sub goes through rigorous testing to be confirmed against performance standards:
• Dimensional Inspection: The use of measuring tools checks the dimension and guarantees that the threading accurately cuts the threads.
• Thread Inspection: The smoothness and tightness of the thread profiles are examined and compared with the specifications that enable correct fitment.
• Pressure Testing: The sub is pressure tested to simulate downhole conditions and confirm its ability to withstand extreme pressure.
• Material Testing: The raw material and the final product undergo tensile testing, hardness testing and fatigue testing with the aim of determining strength and reliability.
Key Features
• Thread Integrity: The 2-13/16"-6Acme-2G threading permits a tight and leakage
• Durability: Manufactured with strong and durable alloy steel with higher wear and stress resistance than regular steel.
• Corrosion Protection: The rust-proofing ensures that the sub-lift will perform properly even in a corrosive environment.
• High Pressure Resistance: Designed to sustain operation at high-pressure subsurface environments withstanding no failure.
• Versatility: Customizable thread and lengths allow it to be versatile enough for multiple uses.
Industry Applications
The O.D. 3-3/8" Lift Sub is particularly suitable for application within the petroleum and natural gas sector and specifically in
• Perforating Gun Assembly: required for firm installation and hoisting and lowering of the perforating guns into the wellbore.
• Wellbore Tool Deployment: Facilitates the economic and safe recovery and deployment of the wellbore tools.
• Oil & Gas Drilling and Exploration: Applied in offshore and onshore drilling processes with superior operation in harsh environments.
Packaging and Storage
Each Lift Sub comes packed separately in a manner that will keep it stable during shipping. The package prevents shock and also prevents the sub from coming into contact with any contaminants. The sub must be placed in a chemical and moisture-free environment that will not corrupt the protecting coating of the sub. The sub will be properly maintained in the highest state of condition until it needs to be put into use.
Shipment
Once production has been finalized and passed the checks of quality, the Lift Sub ships based on customer demand either standard shipping or shipping expeditious, with the option of track and tracing the shipping so that the customer may monitor the shipping process with ease. Regardless of whether shipping domestically or internationally, the lift sub ships with careful package design to arrive at the customer undamaged.
