CeramaSealer

Advantages to the CeramaSealer Grease Tubes

  • Patented new design.
  • Stainless steel tubes and retaining nut ends.
  • Tolerance held longer than traditional steel tubes.(A tolerance of .005” to new line specifications is standard)
  • Wireline grease usage decreased over the period of one year.(Up to 70% has been seen on grease savings due to the CeramaSealer grease tube holding a longer tolerance.)
  • Decreased mess on location.(You are able to maintain a better seal on the Wireline better, thus less grease mess at your customer’s location.)
  • Better well control.
  • Less time changing out grease tubes and constantly micing old steel tubes.
  • Less than .004” wear has been seen over a period of 14 months on the CeramaSealer grease tubes.
  • If Wireline is maintained properly and the “taper” is cut off periodically, the CeramaSealer grease tubes have done an excellent job keeping sealed.
  • Standard Tube Size and Price:

For 7/32” Wireline – .229” tube
For 1/4” Wireline – .263” tube
For 9/32” Wireline – .293” tube
For 5/16” Wireline – .327” tube

This allows for .005” over the line specifications for new Wireline.

Other sizes are available by special order. Please allow extra processing time.

“Breaking In” a new Wireline

It is highly recommended to “break in” your new Wireline with an oversized set of steel grease tubes prior to installing your new CeramaSealer grease tubes. The “break in” period should be long enough to season your line and get all the armors set in place. Once you feel the line is ready, put your CeramaSealer grease tubes in place and enjoy the savings to your Wireline operations.

Checking line over the life of the CeramaSealer Grease Tube

Once your CeramaSealer tubes are in place you will see tapering of your Wireline, over time. Every month your line should be checked with a micrometer to see how quickly your line is wearing. Once you are at your deepest depth, with the Wireline, take an x and y axis reading with the micrometer and record it. Do this every 1000’ coming up the hole and record these readings. As you see the line starting to wear outside the tolerance of your CeramaSealer grease tubes, begin cutting line at a point that puts you back into tolerance. This will allow for a better seal to be kept and for the CeramaSealer grease tubes to do their job properly.
