No More Buying New Tubing, Refurbish The Connections Instead
Arnco’s Heat-less Welding Solutions allow you to rebuild and extend your workstring tubing connections, to bring the OD back to nominal and get more recuts, rather than having to buy new joints.
Repair Workstring Tubing Connections with Ease
Workstring tubing is used much like drill pipe, but its connections are very thin and, until now, difficult or even impossible to rebuild or extend. Instead of applying a single band of hardbanding and hoping for the best, Arnco’s Heat-less Welding Solutions allow for the application of multiple, continuous bands of buildup material to thin tubing connections. This is designed to maintain the tensile and torsional strength of the connections with no noticeable changes visually or during operations.

Tested and Proven
Before ever putting any refurbished tubing downhole, Arnco performed extensive testing to prove that the material properties don’t change. Once this was clear, Arnco performed downhole field trials to prove there were no cracks or changes to the connections in any way. Now, over a year later, tens of thousands of feet of tubing with refurbished connections have been downhole with absolutely no issues.
What's the Alternative?
Pipe owners are faced with multiple dilemmas: supply chain issues, rising steel prices, increasing demand. Why buy new tubing, if you even can, when you can fix your current tubing? Arnco is able to refurbish workstring tubing connections for around half the cost of a new joint of tubing, in much less time than it takes for a new order to arrive. This keeps your existing inventory in service and helps meet your customers’ needs. It’s time to save the pipe!
