MSI’s line pipe protectors are very versatile and can be used in a variety of industrial settings. However, the most common usage of pipe end protectors is in surface handling, shipping, and storage of drill string threads.

The Importance of Line Pipe Protectors

The gas and oil industries use these protectors to avoid the need to re-cut pipe threads, which can save time and money. Some of the other important uses for thread protectors are shown in the sections below.

Protecting Pipe During Heavy Usage

Oil and gas drilling sites can be quite rugged, putting an enormous strain on even the most durable pipes. Custom pipe protection pieces cover pipe ends and keep them in optimal condition regardless of the weather outside. When heavy steel pipes must be stored or moved, line pipe protectors keep them safe and ready for future use.

Covering the Ends of Steel Castings During Lifting

In the oil and gas industry, protecting the ends of steel castings with thread protection tools is a standard practice. Most protectors have been heat treated, and they have heavy bails that make it easy to lay and lift drill collars, pipes, and additional BHA components. With the right thread protectors, storage and application are made easier.

Protecting Important Oilfield Parts

Oilfields are chaotic places, and things can get busy very quickly. However, thread protectors offer valuable protection and strength to important oilfield parts, especially frequently rearranged ones. With thread protection methods, these parts can be properly stored in a variety of environmental conditions.

Protection for Shop-Used Parts

Durable thread protection parts such as pipe plugs, thread protectors, and pipe caps have a range of potential uses in both shop and industrial settings. Whenever heavy equipment must be stored but kept ready for use at a moment’s notice, pipe protection parts are up to the task.

Pipe protection parts are commonly used in factories, as well as the gas and oil industries. Durable steel components can be found for companies needing thread protectors for highly specialized applications. Thread protectors can help industrial workers save time, money, and other resources.
