TONG TORQUE
ASSEMBLY
|
The major cause of failure
to drill collar, drill pipe, tubing, casing, and tool
joint is improper make-up. The Atlas Tong Torque
Assembly gives the driller an accurate indication of his
make-up torque regardless of the type of size of pipe or
tool joint.
There are two major
components to the Atlas Tong Torque Assembly – the gauge
and load sensor. The load sensor is a rugged hydraulic
cylinder. The cylinder is manufactured from the finest
of raw materials such as the solid extruded stress
stainless steel piston rod. As a result, the service
life of these cylinders will not be affected by salt
water offshore operations. The Atlas Instrument and
Supply Co., Inc. is the only oil field instrument
manufacturer of this solid extruded stress stainless
steel piston rod within the Atlas Tong Torque Cylinder.
This is one of the many examples of improved quality at
no additional cost to you, our customer. |

As each joint of pipe is
made up, the line pull is converted to a hydraulic
pressure signal within the cylinder. The signal is
transmitted through high pressure host to the indicating
gauge. The gauge is fluid filled and has a six inch dial
reading.
A target pointer which can be set to the
required torque gives the driller an easily visible mark
to work to. The gauge is also provided with a pulsation
damper to even out excessive pointer whip.
The Atlas Torque Assemblies
are available in line pull or direct ft. lb. indications
made specifically for the handle length of the tong. The
gauge can be mounted in front of the driller in the same
cabinet with your Atlas weight indicator, or mounted on
the tongs, back up post, or derrick leg. Wherever the
cylinder is mounted, the tong lever must be adjusted to
pull at a 90 degree angle for correction indication.
This adjustment is made by increasing or decreasing the
length of the back up line.
The Atlas Tong Torque
Assemblies can be used for drill pipe, drill collars,
tubing, casing, and tool joints on manual or power
tongs.
Also
available in metric and standard international
measurements. | |
