API 6TH EDITION 2016.
On December 30, 2016 the API Specification 7K sixth edition
is into effect. This book contains both pre-2017 equipment as
GENERAL INFORMATION
well as the updated equipment.
ABOUT THIS ISSUE
This book is the new version of the National Oilwell Varco®
(NOV) rotary care and maintenance handbook which has
been used over many years. Technology and products have
been improved over the years, however, the principles of
maintaining the equipment has not.
This issue contains information about new products like
lifting gear, adapter rings and master bushings. Some
information about products which have been discontinued
has been removed, like MDP, MDS, KRVS, KRBM, KRP & KRS
roller kelly bushings.
This book can be read in conjunction with the Rotary and
Handling Tools Catalog (D391000838-MKT-001). It also can
be considered to be the User's Manuals for certain products
according to the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, containing
all information for safe use, maintenance and repair.
Nevertheless it must be said that in case a specific User's
Manual excists, this specific User's Manual prevails.
THE CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF ROTARY
EQUIPMENT
The search for energy continues at an ever-increasing rate.
Wells are being drilled daily to greater depths than were
thought possible only a generation ago. These deep wells
place great demands on both the rig’s rotary equipment and
the crews that operate and maintain it.
The rotary equipment is the very heart of the drilling
operation. Al lot of drilling operations center around the
conventional master bushing, slips, kelly and kelly bushing.
Even though this equipment is designed for long service life
and is able to absorb a certain amount of mistreatment, it will
eventually wear out.
When a piece of rotary equipment fails in use, the results are
often dangerous and always expensive.
A planned program of regular inspection and maintenance
will save a great deal of rig time and money. The real problem
seems to be that rotary equipment on the rig may remain in
service for several years without failure, and its performance
is taken for granted. All too often, the only time a problem
appears is when a kelly turns through a kelly bushing, or
when pipe is inspected, and several joints must be discarded
due to bottlenecking in the slip area.
The purpose of this handbook is to avoid expensive damage
to drill pipe, drill collars, and kellys due to improper handling
and equipment maintenance.
Although NOV equipment is shown extensively throughout
this handbook; inspection, maintenance, and operating
principles are essentially the same for all manufacturers’
products.

PROPER HANDLING OF KELLYS

The width of the driving surface on the kelly is directly

proportional to the amount of clearance between the kelly and
the kelly bushing rollers. The tighter the clearance, the wider
the driving surface will be.

A few facts about kellys and the causes of wear will give better
insight to the importance of kelly bushing maintenance.
Figure 1: Kelly Sizes

sections . They may be hexagonal or square. When new, both 3.0 In. 3.1/2 In.

Specification 7. 5.1/4 In. 6.0 In.

When the kelly and bushing are new, there is a perfect fit
between the two hexagonal surfaces.
KELLYS & KELLY BUSHINGS

Figure 2: When the kelly is put into service, one small mark
starts on the roller from kelly contact, the kelly deforms the
rollers to provide driving surface on the kelly.The 5.1/4 inch hex
kelly is the most popular size kelly in use today.

Due to its strength, small OD tool joint on the pin end and large
bore for better hydraulics, it is also one of the hardest kellys to
maintain. The kelly measures 5.1/4 inches (133 mm) across the
flats and only 6 inches (152 mm) across the corners. The kelly
is almost round and must, therefore, be run in a good kelly
bushing.

Figure 2: Kelly and Rollers

NOV.COM
Figure 3: Shows the API specifications for the two most popular
kellys, the 5.1/4 inch hex and the 4.1/4 inch square. Note the
tolerances: 5.1/4 + 1/32, -0 inch hex and 4.1/4 + 3/32, -0 inch
square.

Figure 4: A good indicator of the condition of the kelly and kelly

drive bushing is the width and appearance of the wear pattern
on the kelly flats. Recognizing wear patterns can give early
warning that the kelly drive bushing requires more than routine
maintenance.

Wear pattern width is determined by:

1. Kelly size.
2. Total clearance between kelly and rollers.
3. Roller to kelly contact angle. Figure 4: Kelly Inspection 11

Figure 5: The maximum possible width of wear pattern on a

Figure 12: Shows the same kelly with an extreme roll-over of
the kelly’s driving edge. A watchful eye and the replacement
or adjustment of worn parts in the drive bushing would have
extended the life of this kelly.

Figure 12 : Driving Edge Wear

Figure 13: Shows a kelly in a drive bushing that was still in use.
Observe the area of the kelly just above the drive bushing.
The kelly has turned through the rollers of the bushing at this
point. A kelly will not turn through the rollers unless too much
clearance exists between the rollers and the kelly, reducing the 13
driving surface and increasing the contact angle. If the kelly
is put in a high torque situation with this much clearance, the
kelly will turn through the bushing again and again.

Therefore, the kelly bushing must be taken out of service and

KELLYS & KELLY BUSHINGS

thoroughly inspected for wear.

Figure 13: Kelly That Has Turned Through Rollers

Figure 14: Shows a kelly that has been in service for only three
months. The driving edge is not 1.1/4 inches (32 mm) but only
1/2 inch (12,7 mm). If the kelly bushing or its parts are not
replaced, the kelly will turn through the worn kelly bushing in
as little as three more months. The cost of replacing this kelly
can be avoided.

Figure 14 : Driving Edge Inspection

Figure 15: Shows a roller with a driving surface about one

inch (25,4 mm) wide, which is pretty good. The wear pattern,
however, should be at the bottom on one side of the V and
at the top of the other side. This shift in the placement of the
driving surface on the rollers is due to wear in assembly parts or
in the body of the bushing.

Figure 15: Roller Wear

NOV.COM
 A KELLY MAY BE UNUSABLE FOR THREE REASONS:
1. It is bent.
2. Metal fatique.
3. The corners of the drive surfaces are worn.
1. BENT KELLYS
Figure 16: If a kelly has become bent, it should be straighetened
to avoid high bending stresses and early fatique damage.
2. KELLY FATIGUE
Figure 17: Kelly fatigue is likely to occur in three places: Figure 16: Unusable Kelly
a. The upper fillet
b. The lower fillet LOWER FILLET
c. In the middle of the kelly body
The fillet is a transition area from the more flexible body of the
kelly to the very rigid tool joint section. Even with the 37-degree
taper, this transition area is susceptible to fatigue. When the kelly UPPER FILLET CENTER
is bored from both ends during manufacture, a misalignment of
14 the two bores may occur at the center due to the boring tools
drifting slightly. this creates a possible fatigue point.

2. Check the OD across the corners and across the flats.
3. Check the ID.
4. The wall thickness should be checked by ultrasonic Figure 19: Strength of Kellys (New vs. Re-Milled)
measurement over its entire length.
5. Check the remaining tong area on the toll joints.

Figure 19: The weakest section of a kelly is the lower pin

connection. As shown in the chart a 5.1/4 inch hex kelly, bore will
have an increased diameter of 3.1/4 to 3.1/2 inches (82 to 89 mm).
This weakens the pin section slightly.
DO’S:
• Do inspect the kelly frequently.
• Do keep the drive surfaces lubricated and use a kelly wiper
rubber.
• Do use a saver sub to prevent wear of the lower pin
connection.
• Do use new roller assemblies when a new kelly is put into Figure 20: Kelly In Scabbard
service.
DON’TS:
• Don’t weld on drive corners.
• Don’t move or store a kelly without the use of a scabbard.
• Don’t use a crooked kelly.

CARE OF KELLYS
Here are some tips on handling kellys to get maximum life from
them.
Figure 20: The drive section of a kelly is quite flexible. Due to its
length and weight, a kelly should never be handled or moved
without being in a scabbard. Always support the scabbard in two
places rather than one.
The kelly should be tied back to prevent it from being bent.\
Figure 22: The weight of the swivel above the kelly will bend it
unless tie back precautions are taken. This is especially important
on smaller size kellys.
When the kelly is picked up or set back, care should be taken to
ease the kelly fillet into the kelly bushing. The shock loads from
running the fillet into the rollers of the kelly bushing can damage
bearings in the bushing. Figure 22: Kelly in Rathole

DESCRIPTION OF KELLY DRIVE BUSHINGS

The kelly drive bushing engages the master bushing in the

rotary (either square drive or pin drive). As the rotary turns, the
kelly drive bushing turns with it, to drive the kelly. At the same
time, as the kelly works down, the rollers in the bushing allow
the kelly free movement and keep it centered in the rotary bore.
The earlier square kelly bushings worked fine in the square
drive master bushings, but as wells became deeper, longer HDS HDP
slips were needed, so the pin drive system was developed.
While developing the pin drive kelly bushings, Varco also
increased the capability of both the pin drive and square drive, Figure 23: Heavy Duty Kelly Bushings
better enabling them to meet the challenges of today’s deeper
wells. This development became the Heavy Duty, of HD series.

Figure 23: The Varco HDS and HDP (heavy duty square and
heavy duty pin drive) kelly bushings have been available since
1967, answering the need for better, stronger kelly bushings for
15
high torque, high speed drilling operations.

Figure 27: The HD series bushing uses bolts pushed up into

recesses in the lower body section and locked in place with

setscrews. The top nuts are tightened as before but is is
impossible for the bolt to back out in service. STUD RETAINING
PIN HDP
Figure 28: The HDP bushing uses straight roller pins that lock
against each other. Also, the hold-down bolts are outside the
load to provide a vise-like grip on the pins. Figure 27: Bolt/Stud Retaining Systems
THRUST WASHER

Figure 29: A significant feature to the thrust washer has been HOLD DOWN
the O-rings on both the OD and the ID that prevent mud and grit BOLTS
from entering the bearing area and also retain grease. Keeping
the bearing surfaces clean in this manner results in much ROLLER
longer bearing life. Like the rest of the rotary equipment, the
kelly drive bushing has a very long service life (approximately 8
years). Due to this long life, maintenance is often neglected, and
premature failure results.

 VARCO HD SERIES KELLY BUSHINGS
Figure 30 &31: The Varco HDP pin drive roller kelly bushing is
designed for the most rugged, high torque, high speed drilling
conditions in the world. Its roller assembly provides an efficient
driving mechanism that maintains good driving edges on the
kelly and allows proper feed of the kelly without binding.By
changing roller sizes, one bushing can handle several kelly
sizes. Other features are a selfcentering stabbing skirt, roller
bearings or optional fiber sleeve bearings. The Varco HDP
series kelly bushing is widely recognized as the drilling industry HDS
standard.
The Varco 27 HDP roller kelly bushing is used with Varco pin
drive master bushings for 23, 26, 27.1/2, 37.1/2, and 49.1/2 inch
rotary tables. The 27 HDP has 3.5/16 inch (84 mm) diameter
drive pins on a 25.3/4 inch (654 mm) diameter pin center and
16 will accommodate kelly sizes from 3 to 6 inches hex or square.
This heavy duty kelly drive bushing is designed for high torque,
high speed conditions.

The Varco 20 inch HDP roller kelly bushing is used with Varco
pin drive master bushings for 20.1/2, 21, and 22 inch rotary
KELLYS & KELLY BUSHINGS

tables. The 20 inch HDP has 2.1/2 inch (63,5 mm) diameter
drive pins on a 23 inch (584 mm) diameter pin center. It uses the
same rollers, roller assemblies and wiper assemblies as the 27
HDP. HDP

The Varco HDS drive roller kelly bushing (Figure 31) is a heavy Figure 30 & 31: HDS & HDP Kelly Bushing
duty bushing designed for rugged, high torque applications.
The HDS will accommodate square or hex kellys from 3 to 6
inches (76 to 152 mm).
The Varco HDS is used with master bushings having an inside
drive square dimension of 13.9/16 inches (344 mm). This
bushing uses the same rollers, roller assemblies, and wiper
assemblies as the 27 HDP.

VARCO MD SERIES KELLY BUSHINGS

Figure 32: Varco’s MD kelly drive bushing is used for shallow

and medium depth drilling operations. Available either as pin
drive (MDP) or square drive (MDS), it will accommodate 3, 3.1/2,
and 4.1/4 inch hex kellys and 2.1/2, 3.1/2, and 4.1/4 inch square
kellys.A direct descendant of Varco’s heavy duty (HDP and HDS) MDP
kelly drive Bushing, this medium duty drive bushing has the
same rugged characteristics built into it. Installation, operation,
and maintenance are the same as for the larger bushings.

The MDP can be used on any drilling rig that has the Varco pin
drive master bushing in either a 17.1/2 or 20.1/2 inch rotary
table. The MDS has an API square to match the API squares in
standard square drive master bushings.

INSTALLATION
Figure 34:
1. Lift and set kelly bushing in master bushing.
2. Remove four nuts and lockwashers.
3. Lift top half of kelly bushing off studs and set aside.
4. Remove the four roller assemblies from lower half of kelly
bushing.
5. Set top half of the kelly bushing loosely on bottom half.
6. Stab kelly through bushing.

Note: Make sure that thrust washer lock pins (Figure 35) are toward
the center of bushing and lie in the recessed areas of the lower body
half.

All kelly bushing thrust washers come with o-rings on the inside
and outside diameters. These o-rings help retain grease in the
roller bearing while keeping mud and water out. 17
1. Lift top half of bushing and reinstall roller assemblies.
2. Lower the top half the kelly bushing, aligning it with the
locating pin.
3. Install lockwashers and nuts, then tighten alternately until

service

OPERATION Figure 35: Kelly Bushing Assembly

Figure 36:
1. Lower kelly bushing into the master bushing. The skirt
will follow the taper down into the throat of the master
bushing. The floating ring (HDP and MDP bushing) will seat
in the upper portion of the master bushing, centering the
kelly bushing.
2. It is recommended that the rotary table be turned slowly
as the kelly bushing is being lowered. The bushing will
center and the drive pins (HDP and MDP bushing) will stab
into the drive holes of the master bushing.
3. The skirt should be greased to allow the kelly floating ring
(HDP and MDP bushing) to move up easily.
4. Care should be taken when lowering the kelly into the
rathole. Any sudden, jarring stop when the kelly upset
strikes the rollers, can damage the roller assembly.
5. The life of the kelly and drive bushing parts can be
increased at least 20 percent by using a kelly wiper rubber.
The wiper will keep dirt and other material from getting
between the kelly and the rollers, resulting in less wear on
all parts.

Note: Applying grease to the kelly will increase the life of the wiper
rubbers.

Varco kelly bushings have 1/8 inch (3,2 mm) clearance between
the top and bottom body halves (in new condition). When the
top nuts are tight, this provides a vise-like grip on the roller
pins. To check wear in roller assemblies, place a bar under the
roller and pry the rollers up. The assembly should not move
upward over 1/32 inch (0,79mm).

While checking for roller movement, be sure there is no

movement of the roller pin itself by watching the end of the
pin. If there is movement of the roller pin, the kelly bushing
body has journal wear. If there is more than 1/32 inch (0,79 mm)
movement of rollers, but the pin itself does not move, then the
roller bearings should be replaced and the pin inspected for
wear.

 MASTER BUSHINGS
PROPER HANDLING OF MASTER BUSHINGS AND SLIPS
Figure 54: One of the most expensive pieces of equipment
on the rig is the drill pipe. Not only is it expensive, but it is in
very short supply. Typically, worn master bushings and slips
are discovered when inserts are wearing out much more
rapidly than usual or when a drill pipe inspection reveals
crushed or bottle necked pipe. This is a needless waste of
valuable material - a regular program of rotary equipment
inspection could have spotted the problem in plenty of time
to make corrections, without damaging the drill pipe.In
simple terms a comparison can be made between slips and
a wedge driven into a log. The wedge’s taper produces a side
load or transverse force which is transmitted into the log. This
transverse force is much greater than the axial force applied
by the hammer to the wedge. If the wedge is clean and well
lubricated, the coefficient of friction between the wedge and
the wood is low. Thus, the ratio between the force applied
by the hammer and the resulting splitting force on the TRANSVERSE FORCE
wood is much greater. If the wedge is dry, dirty, or rusty with
AXIAL
insufficient lubrication the coefficient of friction is high. When
FORCE
the coefficient of friction increases, drag increases between
the wood and the wedge and it takes a much greater axial
30 force applied by the hammer to split the log.
Figure 54: Slips and Master Bushing Forces

A related principle applies with slips and master bushings

that are suspending pipe in the rotary. The slip is the wedge.
The hook load is the axial force or vertical load. However,
when splitting a log, the two halves of the log are not
restrained from outside forces as in the case of slips and
MASTER BUSHINGS

pipe in a master bushing. The slips’ job is not to actually do

work - it simply supports a static load. Due to the fact that the
master bushing is restraining the outward force, the weakest
component becomes the drill pipe.

Figure 55: Shows the coefficient of friction between the rotary

slip and the master bushing, depending on the condition
of the mating surfaces. The lower the coefficient of friction
between the slip and the master bushing taper, the greater
the amount of transverse or crushing force per pound of axial
or hook load. If, for example, a hook load of 100,000 pounds
(45,360 kg) is used, it can be seen from this chart what the
resulting transverse load would be. With dirty, dry, or rusty
slips and master bushing tapers, the ratio is 1.4 to 1. With
new, clean, well lubricated slips and master bushing tapers,
the ratio would be 4.4. to 1. The average ratio would be 3 to
1. This means that 100,000 Ibs (45,360 kg) results in 300,000
Ibs (136,079 kg) of transverse load. This high transverse load
is why the master bushing and slips must be kept in good
condition (or the pipe may become bottlenecked).
Figure 55: Results of Friction Between Slips and master
Bushing

NOV.COM
Figure 56: One question is very important: How is this force
distributed along the length of the slip inset contact area? The HOOK LOAD CRUSHING PRESSURE
hook load or axial force starts at zero at the top and increases
to a maximum at the toe of the slip. The transverse load or
crushing force begins with a minimum at the top, increasing
to a maximum in the center, then decreasing to a minimum
again at the toe.

In practical application on a rig, these two forces act upon

each other, resulting in a concentration of force slightly less THE CRUSHING
than halfway above the throat of the master bushing. Heavy THE HOOK LOAD IS PRESSURE DIMINISHES
strings of drill pipe can be handled without any damage to GREATEST AT THE AXIAL
TO ZERO AT TOP AND
the pipe in the slip area, if the rotary slip is supported so that BOTTOM OF THE SLIP LOAD F BOTTOM OF SLIP
the load is distributed equally on all of the inserts. If the slips
are not supported correctly, bottlenecking of drill pipe will Figure 56: Distribution of Forces
occur.
If slips and master bushings are kept in good condition, the
massive crushing force that exists will be equally distributed.
When this force distributed along the entire length of the slip,
pipe is not be damaged. Wear in both the ID of the master
bushing and on the backs of the slips, however, reduces the
length of load distribution to only the area near the top of the
slip, resulting in bottlenecking of drill pipe.

Figure 57: The API standard master bushing is 10.1/8 inches

31
(257 mm) in diameter at the throat, tapering at a rate of 4
inches per foot, to a diameter of 13.1/16 inches (332 mm) at
the top. The tapered section is 8.13/16 inches (224 mm) in Figure 57: API Standard Split Square Drive
length. Notice that the remaining 4 inches (102mm) of the Master Bushing Dimensions
master bushing is recessed to accept the square drive of the

MASTER BUSHINGS
kelly bushing.

Figure 58: The square drive bushing was approved by the

API over 35 years ago when a 10,000 foot (3,048 m) well was
considered deep. As hook loads became heavier, drill pipe
was being crushed more frequently. Slip manufacturers
increased the slip insert area from 12 to 18 inches (305 to 457
mm) and more, without increasing the support area for the
slips themselves. This did not solve the problem.

Figure 58: API Standard Slid Pin Drive

Master Bushing Dimensions
Figure 59: In the late 1950s, Varco realized the need for CONVENTIONAL LONG
EXTRA LONG
additional support for the slip bodies. In an effort to gain ROTARY SLIPS ROTARY SLIPS
this needed support, the kelly drive was transferred to the
top of the master bushing by the use of pins. The taper was
then brought to the top of the master bushing, providing an
additional 4 inches (102 mm), or almost 50 percent increase
in slip support. This increased the taper length to 12.3/4
inches (324 mm) as opposed to 8.13/16 inches (224 mm) in
the standard square drive master bushing.

Both long and extra-long rotary slips have the same amount
of insert contact. The major difference between the two slips
is the length of the tapered area. This longer bowl backup
results in lower overall cost, longer life, and increased
STANDARD API
protection for the drill pipe.

Figure 60: The Varco MSPC is designed for all drilling
operations. The pin drive allows the kelly bushing to ride on
top of the roatary table and permits extended bowls to be
used for better slip backup. Better slip backup means heavier
strings can be run without the danger of bottlenecking. With
the extended API insert bowl No. 3, the MSPC will handle
2.3/8 thru 8-5/8 inch OD drill pipe, drill collars, tubing, and
casing. Insert bowl No. 2 can handle tubular goods 9.5/8 and
10.3/4 inches OD; while insert bowl No. 1 is good for 11.3/4
and 13.3/8 inches OD. The MSPC, with proper insert bowls
to accommadate a given diameter string, has a maximum
capacity of 500 tons. The MSPC has locks that hold the
bowls securely in the bushing. The solid outer body takes
all transverse loads and provides proper backing for the
split insert bowls, allowing the roatary table to rotate freely,
unimpaired by transverse stress. Figure 60: Square Drive Bushings

Models CU and CUL are solid bushings and Model CB is a split
bushing. All of these bushings accept bowls of different sizes
to accommodate a wide range of casing. Used with Varco’s
CUL
CMS-XL Slips, these bushings can handle the longest casing
strings currently being set. Also, since these bushings fit
into the rotary table, the casing string can be rotated during
cementting operations.
BIT BREAKER ADAPTER PLATE
Figure 65: A bit breaker adapter plate is furnished with every
Varco pin drive master bushing to convert the round opening
of a pin drive master bushing to a 13.9/16 inch standard, CB
API square drive opening. All rock bit companies furnish bit
break-out boxes which fit into this opening. The adapter plate Figure 64: Casing Bushings
is held in place with four pins which fit into the four drive pin
holes of the bushing.
When using bits in excess of 12.1/4 inches, such as the 15.1/2

3. Lubricate the inside taper of the drilling bowls (when
tripping) to prevent slips from sticking in the bowls.
4. Lubricate the back of the drilling bowl each time it is
33
removed from the hull. This will prevent the bowls and
slips from sticking and reduce master bushing ID wear.
5. Replace lock assembly when it ceases to function.
Figure 89:
6. Replace the API drilling bowls when throat measurement

exceeds 10.7/8 inches (276 mm) on extended API bowls.
7. Replace API drilling bowls when a straight edge held
against taper indicates wear from the tool joint in the
tapered section of the bowls
8. When the backs of the rotary slips and the taper of the
bowls become rough, both of these surfaces must be
polished by using emery cloth on the backs of the slips
or a flexible, fine sandpaper disk. Keeping these surfaces
polished will help prevent sticking.
9. Hinge Pins (MPCH Only):
• The stationary hinge pin (without bail) has one lube fitting
located at top center. This pin should be greased daily. Figure 67: Slips Riding High in Master Bushing
• The removable hinge pin (with bail) should be cleaned up
and greased each time it is taken out. It has a lube fitting
located at top center.
Inspection
Figure 66: Inspection is the most important aspect of preventive
maintenance. Inspection consists of observing, measuring, and
testing.There is wear in the ID of the rotary table which gives
insufficient support for the master bushing itself.
1. The OD of the master bushing is worn.
2. There is excessive wear in the taper and the throat ID.

Figure 67: These wear conditions affect the function of the slips
themselves:
1. The reduced backup area for the slip causes wear and
crushing in the backs of the slips.
2. The gripping area of the slips on the pipe is greatly reduced.
3. Slips used under these conditions are easily deformed. Drill
pipe damage is likely to occur. Observing the height of set
slips in the master bushing is an easy means of checking for Figure 68: Slips Riding Low in Master Bushing
wear. The slips ride high in the master bushing when the
rotary equipment is in good condition.
Figure 68:
4. As the system wears, slips ride lower in the master bushing.

 PAPER TEST: TESTING OF ROTARY EQUIPMENT
WEAR

To validate the condition of the different tool combinations (e.g.

master bushing, split bowl and slip) apart from the inspection
steps mentioned in other sections of this handbook, a Paper
Test when needed extended with a blue dye test can be carried
out. The Paper Test will help to determine the condition of the
slips related to the stage of slip life cycle.

Figure 69: Wrapping Test Paper Around Kelly

For the best results, a rule of thumb is to apply a test load
(hookload) of 10,000 lbs (4,535 kg) multiplied with the number
of insert columns.

General procedure
Clean an area of pipe where there are no insert marks. Clean
slip inserts with a wire brush.

Figure 69: Wrap a layer of test paper around the cleaned section
of pipe. Varco can supply test paper or a layer of mud sack
paper will serve the purpose. Use friction tape to hold the paper
to the pipe.

RECOGNIZING WORN EQUIPMENT AND HOW TO

SOLVE THE PROBLEM.
Figure 74: This is a worn split master bushing in a rotary. The
space at the top, approximately 1/4 inch (6,5-mm) between
these two bushing halves. The space at the bottom however,
has increased to more than 3/4 inch (19 mm). This reduces
support for the slips and causes drill pipe damage. The white
line (see arrow) indicates where the throat of the master Figure 74: Master Bushing Wear
bushing was when new.

Figure 75: The increased gap at the bottom, between the

Figre 77: A second and less expensive solution would be to

replace the split master bushing with a solid master bushing
which does not depend on the rotary bore for support. The
solid master bushing will contain the complete load of the
string (and has a capacity of 500 tons).When a master bushing
is replaced, the rotary slips must be checked.

Figure 77: Solid Body Master Bushings

Figure 78 Shows a new master bushing with worn rotary slips.

A set of slips conforms or wears in relation to the condition
of the master bushing. If a master bushing is worn and must
be replaced; it is probable that the slips are also worn, due to
improper support from the old bushing. If worn and deformed
slips do not receive proper support from the new master
bushing, they will cause continued damage to the drill pipe.
A worn or bent slip will bend back in a new bushing, causing
cracks in the slip body.

Figure 80: Due to reduced support in the critical area of a worn

limit.

Figure 80: Square Drive Master Bushing with Worn ID

Figure 80 shows a solid master bushing that has been sent in

for repair. The first thing that can be noticed is that the bowls
are together at the top and open at the bottom. This condition
means there is wear on the back of the bowls and inside of
the outer hull.While the ID of the top of this hull is correct,
inspection shows that the ID at the bottom is worn 3/16 inch
(4.8 mm), enough to cause the separation between the bowls.
Figure 81: Checking Master Bushing ID

Figure 82: The inspector is checking the taper. The length of the
original taper was 8.13/16 inches (224 mm). this is now reduced
to approximately 7 inches (178 mm) which amounts to 2 inches
(50,8 mm) less support for the rotary slip. Notice the circular
line at the end of the rule. This mark indicates tool joint wear.

effective backup for the rotary slip has now been reduced to 5
inches (127 mm). When using a long rotary slip, the total length
of the slip is 20 inches (508 mm) with 16.1/2 inches (419 mm)

slip support by 4 inches (101,6 mm).

Inspecting the hull shows there is no measurable wear in the ID

of the upper portion. However, wear can easily be seen at the
point where the hull extends below the bowls.

Drive the bushing into the hole as fast as possible with a
sledge hammer. If too much time is taken, the bushing will
expand in the drive hole and prevent full seating.

CUL and CB casing bushings are inserted directly into the rotary table and
insure that the casing being run is perfectly aligned with the center of the
hole. Model CU is a solid bushing and model CB is a split bushing. All of the
bushings accept bowls of different sizes to accommodate a wide range of
casing. Using CMS-XL or CP-S slips, since these bushings fit into the rotary
table, the casing string can be easily rotated during cementing operations.

 BAASH ROSS / BAASH ROSS UC3 API 5TH EDITION
The Baash Ross [capacity 200 sTon] hinged casing spider, will fit most casing
handling operations. It can be placed on the rotary table, mounted on a platform
which replaces the rotary table, or supported by cribbing, depending upon the
auxiliary equipment and procedure to be followed.
The Baash Ross type UC-3 slips, no API rating, achieves this with many narrow
segments. They are hinged together to wrap around the casing for centering and
exerting an uniform pressure.
The UC-3 has a 3” taper. With changes in the number of segments and liners, it will
handle strings from 16” OD to 36” OD. Liners are held in place by a liner retainer key Baash Ross 200 Ton hinged casing spider
and cotter pins.

 PSF & PSF14 POWER SLIP FRAME & SLT
SLIP LIFTING TOOL
The hydraulic powered slip lifting tools are designed to operate
in combination with master bushings and insert bowls. The tools
increase safety by moving personnel away from the hazards at
well center during drilling operations. The design does not extend
beyond the rotary table and thereby reduces trip hazards in the
event of an accidental rotation of the rotary table. In addition It
reduces strain on people during drilling and tripping operations by
not having to manually set and remove conventional hand slips. PSF
Crew fatigue is minimized by reducing the time and energy required
for manual slip operations.

PSF
The Power Slip Frame (PSF) is designed for handling drill pipe slips
from 2-3/8" to 7". It can be operated via a dedicated hook up kit.
Alternatively, the slips may be operated manually by foot pedal or
hand operated control valve.
This product is not CE-marked.

PSF14
The PSF14 is a Power Slip Frame, designed to handle any NOV
64 hand slip type in sizes 2.3/8" to 14". Standard it is equipped with
Slips Set and Slip Up feedback signal and it is designed to work
in combination with the PS21/30 Hook Up Kit and controls OR a SLT
dedicated Hook Up Kit.
This product is CE-marked.

SLT
MASTER BUSHINGS

The Slip Lifter Tool (SLT) is a tool especially designed to be used in

combination with the heavy duty MBH1250 hinged master bushing,
the LSB1250 Landing String Bushing and LSS1250 Landing String
Slips & RHS rotary slips. The SLT operates in combination with the
dedicated hook up kit. The SLT also can be used for SDHL/SDXL/
RHS-slips using the converting kits.

 ROTARY HAND SLIPS
With the introduction of the 6th edition of API 7K a new line of handslips was introduced. Also a number of slips were rated
accordingly, specifically:
• RHS (new)
• CMS
• CPS
• DCS
The SDHL-slips are not rated but have a recommended capacity.
All other handslips are not rated and shall not be used in API 7K rated applications.

RHS, CMS, CPS & DCS: API Latetst edition rated

SDS, SDML, SDHL & SDXL ROTARY SLIPS: API non rated
These models are for use in API-size standard insert bowls. These slips feature improved contact on drill pipe through a superior
wrap around configuration and unique insert design that helps to prevent bottle necking and gouging damage. The buttress
design of the body segments provides great strength while minimizing weight for ease of handling.
Rotary slips provide long and trouble free service under the most severe conditions. Inserts are held securely in dovetail slots and
are easily changed by removing the nuts, bolts, and retainer at the top of the slots.
1. Minimum operating temperature of the slips according to API 7K: 0° C / 32° F
2. NOV recommends to use the SDHL in applications with increased drilling depths and on floaters specifically.
3. Handslips except for RHS, CMS, CPS and DCS do not have a rating
4. CMSXL have a welded in insert seat. As a ball park figure use about 30 tons per segment provided that the pipe can
withstand the crushing. In a lot of cases is the pipe the limiting factor.

ROTARY SLIPS

NOV.COM
OPERATION OF SLIPS Proper use of rotary slips
The industry has had many accidents caused by slips being
set on moving pipe. The drill pipe must be stopped completely
before the slips are set on the pipe. The driller should look at
the weight indicator to see that he is holding the full load. If the
bit should hit a ledge which supports part of the weight of the
string, when the elevator is removed the pipe could be jarred
free and the full shock load dumped on the slips.
When the shock load hits the slips, the drill string acts like a
rubber band. A 15,000 foot (4,572 m) string of 4.1/2 inch drill
pipe can stretch approximately 38 feet (11 m).
The string will start to bounce and could cause the slips to be OVERSTRESSED OR ’’STRETCHED’’ PIPE
thrown out of the rotary table; then the pipe will be dropped in
the hole. Figure 113: Stopping Pipe With Rotary Slips

Figure 113: If the pipe does not go in the hole and the slips
do hold, another problem could occur; the drill pipe is could
be permanently deformed and cracked just below the slips, EXCESSIVE
resulting in wash-outs.

Figure 114: This shows the effects of using slips on the wrong
size pipe. When 5 inch slips for example, are used on 5 inch
pipe, the inserts have the proper contour. If the slip is used on 67
larger pipe or on tool joints, the stress is placed on the outside
corners of each segment. This causes the slip bodies to spread
and crack. After the slip has been used on larger pipe and then
placed on the pipe size for which it was designed, the slip

the slips to break and allow pieces to fall into the hole.

Figure 115: If drill collar slips are used on collars with recessed INSERTS CRUSHED
areas, care should be taken in setting. If set partially on the SLIP
upset area, the insert and insert slot will be damaged, making SEGMENT
it difficult, if not impossible, to change inserts. The retaining
screw or cotter pin area, could be damaged so that it will be Figure 115: Results of Improperly set Drill Collar Slips
difficult to remove.

NOV.COM
 Figure 116: One final word of caution: There are times when
setting the slips that the driller does not pick up enough to CRUSHED
get the rotary slips around the pipe. In this case the top of the INSERTS
rotary slips are on the tool joint. When the drill pipe is lowered,
the slip’s body is bridged between the master bushing and the SLIP
pipe. This causes the back of the slips to bend. The normal BACKS
reaction is to raise the string and let the slip segment settle
WILL
around the pipe. The bent slip segments will bend back to
BEND
their original form, however, cracks may have developed in the
bodies of the slip. As a result of this, the toe of the slips could
break and fall into the hole. If the driller runs into slips, inspect
it or use a new set until the damaged slip can be inspected
properly.

COMBINED USE OF ROTARY SLIPS AND SAFETY

CLAMPS
The DCS type slips are to be used when running Drill Collars.
The setting procedure is as with any other slips; the driller will
lower the string to the point where the hand slips are due to
be set, at this point the drill will stop lowering and the slips
can be clamped around the pipe in the bowls. The driller will
then transfer the string weight from the elevator to the slips by
slowly lowering the blocks.

On those occasions where the driller collar will slip thru the
slips, or as an added safety device, a dog collar or safety
clamps can be used above the slips. The DCS type slips are
fitted with a flat on top of each segment. This flat spot is there

68 to provide a landing area for the safety clamp. The working of

a safety clamp is to push the slips further into the bowl, and
thereby forcing the slips to better grip the drill collar, in case
of pipe slippage. The safety clamp is not a rated device, and if
used properly it will only see a fraction of the string weight, as
the string weight is supported in the slips.
ROTARY SLIPS

NOV recommends to use a safety clamp in those instances

where the DC is slipping thru the slips and never use a sledge
hammer to force DCS (or any type of slips) to better grip the
string.

MAINTENANCE OF SLIPS

NOV recommends using the Inspection and Maintenance as LOCK ASSY

outlined below as a minimum:

Cleaning and Lubrication RETAING PIN

Lubricate the tool regularly during usage and storage to prevent
corrosion from attacking any part of the operating mechanism.
Routine lubrication should be completed prior to use.
1. Grease any hinge pin. LOCK
2. Grease the back of the slips with EP1 or 2 grease
3. Oil the insert backs and dovetail slots using only a light
grade of machine oil. ECCENTRIC PIN

Warning: Never use pipe dope to grease the back of the slips.
CLEAN AND LUBRICATE
THESE SURFACES
Figure 117: Clean the inside taper of the drilling bowls removing
any abrasive material. Lubricate the inside taper of the drilling
Figure 117: Rotary Slips in Position
bowls frequently with grease to prevent slips from sticking
in the bowls. It is suggested that the outside surface of the
bowl and the inside diameter of the hull be cleaned and well
lubricated. This will allow the bowls to move up slightly when
the drill pipe is picked up. At this time, either the rotary slip will
release between the backs and the taper of the bowl, or the
rotary slip together with bowl, will move up a short distance
until the bowl hits the lock, which will then free the slips. If
this area between the bowls and the master bushing is kept
clean and well lubricated, the slips will not stick in the master
bushing.

pipe and drill collar slips as a preventive measure.
Areas of particular concern are slip segment hinges and the
hinge pins.Placing a straight edge against the backs and inside
face of the slips will indicate if they are bent or worn. A good
slip back is straight, smooth, and well greased.
BENT BACKS

Figure 120: Checking Slip Segments

Figure 121: Webs and toes of slips can develop cracks from

NOV.COM
 excessive wear or from use in a badly worn bushing. If cracks
are present, destroy the slips and remove them from the site. If
cracked slips are kept in service, parts could break off and fall
into the hole.

Figure 122: Slips segment hinges should be inspected regulary

to see that the hinge pin is locked into position with the cotter
pin and not worn or cracked. Slips that sag or flop over when
standing alone on the rig floor, are extremely worn in the hinge
area. Pull thee hinge pins and check for straightness. A bent
hinge pin will indicate oversize hinge pin holes. Oversize hinge
pin holes are cause for replacing the slips. If not replaced, wear
will increase at an accelerated rate until the slips do not sit
correctly in the master bushing. This could damage drill pipe.

Figure 123: Check inserts and insert slots for damage and wear.
When the insert slots are badly worn, danger of losing an insert
down the hole exists. Replace the slips before a costly failure
occurs. Slips should be replaced when there is over 1/8 inch (3.2
mm) clearance between the back of the inserts and the insert
slot. Figure 120A: Du Long Slip Segment Pin Hole Wear

TRANSMITTING TORQUE CRACKS

Warning: It is not allowed using rotary hand slips to transmit CRACKS

70 torque.

Rotary slips are designed to support string weight and not

transmit torque or a combined string weight and torque. It is
impossible to determine that combined load of string weight
and torque that would not cause failure of the slips.
ROTARY SLIPS

Rotary handslips (except SDHL) are not rated and the string
load they can hold depends on on the operational conditions. HINGE PIN
WITH
Points to keep in mind COTTER PIN

1. Replace worn or defective equipment.

2. Stop the drill pipe completely before the slips are set on
the pipe. The driller should look at his weight indicator to
see that he is holding the full load.
3. Test the slips every three months.

DCS Drill collar slips
DCS slips provide superior holding power under all
conditions. Each segment, manufactured from a rugged
drop forging, has an extra long back to give maximum
support to the circular button gripping elements. Full
wrap-around design compensates for irregularities in wear.
Circular buttons hold against load from all directions to
assure positive holding and slip setting. Drill collar slips are
flat on top to accommodate the MP Clamp.
CMS Casing slips
CMS slips will handle the longest casing strings currently being
set. Manufactured from drop forgings, their reindorced design will
stand up to the most severe service. The self-centering, full wrap-
around grip holds positively while preventing damage - even to
thin wall casing. By varying the circular button size and adding or
removing body segments, casing from 6-5/8 to 30 inches OD can
easily be accommodated. Light and easy to handle, CMS casing
slips provide unsurpassed quality.

RHS Rotary hand slip
The RHS Rotary Hand Slip is a slip to hang off drill pipe ,
during running in or pulling out of hole. It is used in an API
standard insert bowl dedicated for this particular slip size.
Setting and lifting the RHS in and from the bowl is done by
either manually or by the Slip Lifter tool (SLT) or Power Slip
Frame (PSF), depending on the slip weight.
By means of a connection kit the RHS slips can be attached
to the SLT or PSF.

Lifting & handling the slips from and to rigfloor can be done
in a safe manner attaching a shackle to one of the dedicated
lifting points on the slip. Certified lifting shackle available as
optional equipment to this slip, to be removed from lifting
eye prior to operation.

By using special designed different size inserts: 1/8”

diameter reducing and non-radii dependent, the RHS body
can be dressed to handle the required pipe size.
The RHS Slip is rated according to API 7k latest edition.

USE OF MP&C SAFETY CLAMPS
Intended use of MP&C Safety Clamps
The intended use of MP&C Safety Clamps is to prevent flush
tubulars (Casing or Drill Collars) from slipping through the
hand slips. The Safety Clamp is fixed to the pipe per the
installation instructions below. Should the casing or drill collar
start to slip through the hand slips, the securely fastened
safety clamp will land on top of the hand slips. The safety
clamp will then push the slips further into the bowl and the
inserts or buttons of the hand slip will grip the pipe more
firmly and carry the string weight. The Safety Clamp is not
designed to hold the string weight. It is a device that helps to
set the hand slips better to ensure the string weight is carried
in the slips.
MP&C Safety Clamps should only be used with manual hand
slips.
The MP&C Safety Clamp does not have a rating or safe working
load.
In some old literature, the Safety Clamp is equipped with
lifting ears to act as a single joint elevator. The MP&C Safety
Clamp should NEVER be used as a single joint pick up elevator.
WARNING: Unintended Use of MP&C Safety Clamps
• WARNING: Safety Clamps are never to be used as hoisting
equipment.
• WARNING: Safety Clamps are not intended to be used
with any distance between the top of the slips and the
Safety Clamp. Safety Clamps are not intended to take
the impact, impact that may be imparted by pipe sliding
in the slips if the Safety Clamp is mounted with a gap
between it and the top of the slips. This would cause the
Safety Clamp to slide with the pipe, resulting in the Safety
Clamp impacting the top of the slips.
• WARNING: Safety Clamps should not interfere with the
surrounding outside of the slip top area, e.g. guides or top
covers.
• WARNING: Safety Clamps should not be used with Casing
Elevator/Spider, FMS275, FMS375, PS21 or PS30. These
tools have a top cover with top guide, which will prevent
the Safety Clamp from landing on top of the slips. When
using the Safety Clamp with these tools, the string
weight will be imparted into the Safety Clamp leading to
overload and possible failure of the Safety Clamp, when
the pipe slides throught the slips.
Effectiveness of MP&C Safety Clamps
The below listed factors are under the control & responsibility
of the user to ensure the effectiveness of the Safety Clamp:
• The torque applied to tighten the clamp.
• Clamp placement around the tubular
• Distribution of clamp segments around the circumference
• Condition of the inserts
• Overall condition of the clamp segments
• Wear on parts
• Number of segments are used
• Pipe diameter
• Crushing capacity of the tubular
NOV.COM
Safe Use of MP & C Safety Clamps
When using the safety clamps, proper installation must
be used to ensure the safety clamp effectively contributes
to the clamping force of the slips, should the pipe not be
gripped adequately in the slips. This will best reduce the
risk of pipe from sliding downward in the slips:
Always do the following as a minimum:
1. Ensure correct application by developing and
providing operations & maintenance procedures.
2. Make sure the proper amount of segments are installed
in the safety clamp to provide the optimum number of
inserts in contact with the pipe. This depends on the
size and type of pipe.
SAFETY CLAMPS
3. Always ensure the bottom surface of the safety clamp
is setting on the slips with even distribution of contact
around the bottom of the safety clamp.
4. Ensure the safety clamp is evenly tightened around the
pipe. One procedure* to ensure this is to:
• First tighten nut with the safety clamp hammer-wrench
by hand.
• Tap on the top of the safety clamp at each hinge pin
with the handle side of the hammer-wrench, ensuring
safety clamp is level.
• Repeat steps i and ii until the safety clamp inserts are
fully seated around the pipe and the hammer-wrench
cannot be turned by hand.
• With the hammer-wrench firmly seated on the safety
clamp nut, strike the hammer-wrench with a hammer
until nut is securely tightened.
• As a "Never-Use-Safety-Clamps-As-Hoisting-
Equipment" last check, slowly lower the traveling
blocks, and transfer the pipe weight to the slips;
checking to ensure the pipe does not slide in the slips.
• Final check 1: Ensure all movement restriction
dowles pins are clear of the locating shoulders on the
connecting links.
• Final check 2: All gripping dies must be making good
even contact with the pipe.

 USE & MAINTENANCE OF CHAIN SLINGS

General
The requirements are based on EN 818 part 6.
The chain slings are to be used exclusively for specific lifting applications where all of the circumstances of use are known.

High and low temperature conditions

Where chain slings are to be used at temperatures below -40 °C or above 200°C, the manufacturer should be consulted.

Acidic conditions
Chain slings of Grade 8 should not be used either immersed in acid solutions or exposed to acid fumes. Attention is drawn to the
fact that certain production processes involve acidic solutions and fumes and in these circumstances the manufacturer's advice
should be sought. For the same reasons chain slings should not be galvanized or subjected to any plating processes without the
approval of the manufacturer.

Chain slings of Grade 4 may be used in acidic conditions. The following precautions should be adopted: a) the working load of
such a chain sling should not be greater than 50 % of the working load limit; b) the chain sling should be thoroughly washed in
clean water immediately after use; c) the chain sling should be given an inspection by a competent person each day before use.

Conditions in which the chain sling is likely to be subjected to attack (chemical, abrasive etc.)
The manufacturer of the chain sling should be consulted, particularly if the chain sling is to be exposed to highly concentrated
chemicals combined with high temperatures.

Chain sling verification before first use and in service

LIFTING SLINGS

Before first use of the chain sling it should be ensured that:

a) the chain sling is precisely as ordered;
b) the manufacturer’s certificate is to hand;
c) the identification and working load limit marking on the chain sling correspond to the information on the certificate;
d) full details of the chain sling are recorded.

Before each use

Before each use the chain sling should be inspected for obvious damage or deterioration. If faults are found during this
inspection, the Repair procedure should be followed.

Handling the load

Attention should be given to any specific instructions provided for the handling of the load. Before starting the lift, it should be
ensured that the load is free to move and is not bolted down or otherwise obstructed.
Mass of the load It is essential that the mass of the load to be lifted is known. If the mass is not marked the information should be
obtained from the consignment notes, manuals, plans etc. If such information is not available the mass should be assessed by
calculation.

Method of connection
A chain sling is usually attached to the load and the lifting machine by means of terminal fittings such as hooks and links. Chains
should be without twists or knots. The lifting point should be seated well down in a hook, never on the point or wedged in the
opening; the hook should be free to incline in any direction so as to avoid bending. For the same reason, the master link should
be free to incline in any direction on the hook to which it is fitted.

112 Safety of lift

Hands and other parts of the body should be kept away from the chain to prevent injury as the slack is taken up. When ready
to lift, the slack should be taken up until the chain is taut. The load should be raised slightly and a check made that it is secure
and assumes the position intended. Reference should also be made to ISO 12480-1 for planning and management of the lifting
operation and the adoption of safe systems of working.

Working load limit (WLL)

A suitable chain sling or chain slings should be selected, having a WLL equal to or greater than the mass to be lifted.

Landing the load

The landing site should be prepared. It should be ensured that the ground or floor is of adequate strength to take the weight
taking account of any voids, ducts, pipes etc. which may be damaged or collapse. It should also be ensured that there is
adequate access to the site and that it is clear of any unnecessary obstacles and people. It may be necessary to provide timber
bearers or similar material to avoid trapping the chain sling or to protect the floor or load or to ensure the stability of the load
when landed. The load should be landed carefully. Care should be taken to avoid trapping the chain sling beneath the load

NOV.COM
as this may damage it. Before allowing the chain to become slack, the load should be checked to ensure that it is properly
supported and stable. This is especially important when several loose objects are in basket hitch and choke hitch. When the load
is safely landed the chain sling should be removed by hand. The chain sling should not be dragged out with the lifting machine
since it may thereby be damaged or it may snag and cause the load to topple over. The load should not be rolled off the chain
sling as this may damage the chain sling.

Storage of chain slings

When not in use chain slings should normally be kept on a properly designed rack. They should not be left lying on the ground
where they may be damaged.
If the chain slings are to be left suspended from a crane hook, the chain sling hooks should be engaged in an upper link to reduce
the risk of chain sling legs swinging freely or snagging.
If it is likely that chain slings will be out of use for some time they should be cleaned, dried and protected from corrosion, e.g.
lightly oiled.

Inspection
During service, chain slings are subjected to conditions which affect their safety. It is necessary therefore to ensure, as far as is
reasonably practicable, that the chain sling should be safe for continued use.
If the tag or label identifying the chain sling and its working load limit becomes detached and the necessary information is not
marked on the master link itself, or by some other means, the chain slings should be withdrawn from service.
The chain sling should be withdrawn from service and referred to a competent person for thorough examination if any of the
following are observed:
a) The chain sling markings are illegible, i.e. information on the chain sling identification and/or the working load limit. b)
Distortion of the upper or lower terminals.
c) Chain stretch. If the chain links are elongated or if there is any lack of free articulation between the links or noticeable
difference in the leg length of multi-leg chain slings, the chain may have been stretched.
d) Wear by contact with other objects usually occurs on the outside of the straight portions of the links where it is easily seen and

LIFTING SLINGS
measured. Wear between adjoining links is hidden. The chain should be slack and adjoining links rotated to expose the inner end
of each link. Inter-link wear, as measured by taking the diameter indicated (d1) and one at right angles, (d2) may be tolerated
until the mean of these diameters has been reduced to 90 % of the nominal diameter (dn) (see figure below) provided.

e) Cuts, nicks, gouges, cracks, excessive corrosion, heat discoloration, bent or distorted links or any other defects.
f) Signs of "opening out" of hooks, i.e. any noticeable increase in the throat openings or any other form of distortion in the lower
terminal. The increase in throat opening should not exceed 10 % of the nominal value or be such as to allow the safety latch, if
fitted, to become disengaged.

Thorough examination
A thorough examination should be carried out by a competent person at intervals not exceeding twelve months. This interval
should be less where deemed necessary in the light of service conditions.
Records of such examinations should be maintained.
Chains slings should be thoroughly cleaned so as to be free from oil, dirt and rust prior to examination. Any cleaning method
which does not damage the parent metal is acceptable. Methods to avoid are those using acids, overheating, removal of metal or
movement of metal which may cover cracks or surface defects.
Adequate lighting should be provided and the chain sling should be examined throughout its length to detect any evidence of
wear, distortion or external damage. 113
Repair
Any replacement component or part of the chain sling should be in accordance with the appropriate European Standard for
that component or part. With Grade 8 or Grade 4 chain slings, if any chain link within the leg of a chain sling is required to be
replaced then the whole of the chain within that leg should be renewed. The repair of chain in a welded chain slings should only
be carried out by the manufacturer using a resistance butt or flash butt welding process. Components that are cracked, visibly
distorted or twisted, severely corroded or have deposits which cannot be removed should be discarded and replaced. Minor
damage such as nicks and gouges may be removed by careful grinding or filing. The surface should blend smoothly into the
adjacent material without abrupt change of section. The complete removal of the damage should not reduce the thickness of the
section at that point to less than the manufacturers specified minimum dimensions or by more than 10 % of nominal thickness
of the section. In the case of chain slings on which repair work has involved welding, each repaired chain sling should be proof-
tested following heat treatment using a force equivalent to twice the working load limit and thoroughly examined before it is
returned to use. However, where repair is carried out by inserting a mechanically assembled component, proof-testing is not
required providing that the component has already been tested by the manufacturer in accordance with the relevant European
standard. The accuracy of the tensile test equipment should be of class 2 as given in EN 10002-2..

 USE & MAINTENANCE OF STEEL WIRE ROPE SLINGS

General
The requirements are based on EN 13414-2.
The steel wire rope slings are to be used exclusively for specific lifting applications where all of the circumstances of use are
known.

High and low temperature conditions

Where steel wire rope slings are to be used at temperatures below -40 °C or above 100°C, the manufacturer should be consulted.

Acidic conditions
Steel wire rope slings should not be used either immersed in acid solutions or exposed to acid fumes.

Conditions in which the steel wire rope sling is likely to be subjected to attack (chemical, abrasive
etc.)
The manufacturer of the steel wire rope sling should be consulted, particularly if the steel wire rope sling is to be exposed to
highly concentrated chemicals combined with high temperatures.

Steel wire rope sling verification before first use and in service
Before first use of the steel wire rope sling it should be ensured that:
a) the steel wire rope sling is precisely as ordered;
b) the manufacturer’s certificate is to hand;
c) the identification and working load limit marking on the steel wire rope sling correspond to the information on the certificate;
d) full details of the steel wire rope sling are recorded.
e) the actual use is to be as intended.
LIFTING SLINGS

Preparation
Before starting the lift, it should be ensured that the load is free to move and is not bolted down or otherwise obstructed.
Packing may be required where a rope comes into contact with a load in order to protect either the rope or the load or both,
since sharp corners of hard material may bend or damage the rope or, conversely, the rope may damage the load because of
high contact pressure. Corner protection should be used to prevent such damage.
In order to prevent dangerous swaying of the load and to position it for loading, a tag line is recommended.
When loads are accelerated or decelerated suddenly, dynamic forces occur which increase the stresses in the rope. Such
situations, which should be avoided, arise from snatch or shock loading e.g. from not taking up the slack rope before starting to
lift.

Mass of the load

It is essential that the mass of the load to be lifted is known

Handling the load

Attention should be given to any specific instructions provided for the handling of the load. Before starting the lift, it should be
ensured that the load is free to move and is not bolted down or otherwise obstructed.
Mass of the load It is essential that the mass of the load to be lifted is known. If the mass is not marked the information should be
obtained from the consignment notes, manuals, plans etc. If such information is not available the mass should be assessed by
calculation.

Method of connection
114 A wire rope sling is usually attached to the load and the lifting machine by means of terminal fittings. Sling legs should not be
twisted or knotted. The lifting point should be seated well down in a hook, never on the point or wedged in the opening; the sling
hook should be free to incline in any direction so as to avoid bending. For the same reason, the terminal fitting should be free to
incline in any direction on the hook to which it is fitted.

When attaching the sling to the lifting hook, ensure that there is adequate clearance to permit articulation and to prevent
damage to the sling. Never force, hammer or wedge a sling into position. If there is insufficient clearance, fit a shackle between
the sling and the hook. To prevent the formation of kinks and subsequent weakening of the rope of slings having soft eye
terminations, ensure that the effective diameter of the shackle pin / hook is at least twice the diameter of the rope. In the case of
a mutli-leg sling the tip of a sling hook should be directed outwards. No rope should be wrapped around a crane hook.

Safety of lift
Hands and other parts of the body should be kept away from the steel wire rope to prevent injury as the slack is taken up.
When ready to lift, the slack should be taken up until the steel wire rope is taut. The load should be raised slightly and a check
made that it is secure and assumes the position intended. Reference should also be made to ISO 12480-1 for planning and
management of the lifting operation and the adoption of safe systems of working.

Working load limit (WLL)
A suitable steel wire rope sling or steel wire rope slings should be selected, having a WLL equal to or greater than the mass to be
lifted.

Landing the load

The landing site should be prepared. It should be ensured that the ground or floor is of adequate strength to take the weight
taking account of any voids, ducts, pipes etc. which may be damaged or collapse. It should also be ensured that there is
adequate access to the site and that it is clear of any unnecessary obstacles and people. It may be necessary to provide timber

Inspection
During service, steel wire rope slings are subjected to conditions which affect their safety. It is necessary therefore to ensure, as

LIFTING SLINGS
far as is reasonably practicable, that the steel wire rope sling should be safe for continued use.
If the tag or label identifying the steel wire rope sling and its working load limit becomes detached and the necessary
information is not marked on the master link itself, or by some other means, the steel wire rope slings should be withdrawn from
service.

An inspection is a visual check on the condition of the sling to identify any obvious damage or deterioration that might affect its
fitness for use.
The sling should be withdrawn from service and referred to a competent person for thorough examination if any of the following
is observed before each use:
a) Illegible sling markings, i.e. sling identification and/or working load limit.
b) Wear, distortion and/or cracking of the upper or lower terminals and/or ferrules.
c) Concentration(s) of broken wires.
d) Severe rope distortion, such as kinks or protrusion of the core.
e) Significant rope wear.
f) Corrosion.
g) Heat damage.

Following examination of a sling with illegible markings and unless it can be shown that the sling was fabricated from rope
having a grade other than 1770, the competent person should assume that the rope grade is 1770 when determining the new
working load limit (WLL).

Thorough examination
A thorough examination should be carried out by a competent person at intervals not exceeding twelve months. This interval
should be less where deemed necessary in the light of service conditions.
115
To facilitate examination, slings may need to be cleaned so as to be free from oil, dirt and rust prior to examination. This can
usually be accomplished by using a wire brush. Other methods may be used providing that the parent metal is not damaged.
Methods to avoid are those using acids, overheating or removal of metal.
Records of such examinations should be maintained.

Withdrawn from service

The sling should be withdrawn from service if any of the conditions in below table point 1 to 8 are present, reached or exceeded.

1) Sling markings
The sling markings, i.e. information on the sling identification and /or the working load limit, are illegible.

2) Damaged upper and lower terminals

Wear, distortion or cracking of the upper or lower terminals.
NOTE Particular attention should be paid to signs of opening up, distortion or cracking of the hook, distortion and wear of links

NOV.COM
 or the closing of the thimble, indications that the sling may have been overloaded.

3) Damaged rope terminations

Wear, distortion or cracking of ferrules or the pulling out of a splice.

4) Broken wires
4.1) General
Broken wires are detrimental because of a) the possibility of injury to the user’s hands; b) the loss of strength in the rope. Broken
wires are usually caused by mechanical damage, although corrosion may also be a factor.

The appearance of well distributed broken wires may have no marked effect on the strength of the sling but the discard criteria
in 4.2 and 4.3 should be adopted for randomly distributed broken wires and concentrated broken wires respectively.

NOTE To prevent injury to the user’s hands, protruding broken wires can be broken off in the valleys between the strands by
reverse bending the wire, with the help of pliers, until fracture occurs. Such actions should be recorded.

4.2) Randomly distributed broken wires

6 randomly distributed broken outer wires in a length of 6d but no more than 14 randomly distributed broken wires in a length of
30d where d is the nominal rope diameter.

4.3) Concentrated broken wires

3 adjacent broken outer wires in one strand.

5) Rope distortion
Kinking, crushing, birdcaging or core protrusion or other damage which distorts the rope structure. NOTE The main thing to look
for is wires or strands that are pushed out of their original positions in the rope. Slight bends in a rope where wires or strands are
still relatively in their original positions would not be considered serious damage.
LIFTING SLINGS

6) Rope wear
10% of the nominal rope diameter (d).

7) Corrosion
Pitting of the wires or loss of flexibility of the rope due to severe internal corrosion.
NOTE Corrosion may occur where slings have been improperly stored or have been used in particularly corrosive conditions,
such as moving loads in and out of acid/alkali baths. The effect is readily identified through the loss of flexibility and roughness
to the touch. While light surface rusting is unlikely to affect the rope strength, it may be indicative of internal corrosion, the effect
of which is not predictable.

8) Heat damage
Heat damage as evidenced by discolouration of the wires, loss of lubrication or pitting of the wires caused by electric arcing.

Maintenance
Any replacement component or part of the wire rope sling should be in accordance with the appropriate European Standard
for that component or part. Components that are cracked, visibly distorted or twisted, severely corroded or have deposits
that cannot be removed should be discarded and replaced. Minor damage such as nicks and gouges to terminal fittings may
be removed by careful grinding or filing. The surface should blend smoothly into adjacent material without abrupt change
of section. The complete removal of the damage should not reduce the thickness of the section at that point to less than the
manufacturer’s specified minimum dimensions or by more than 10% of nominal thickness of the section.

define any special tools, materials, measuring and inspection equipment, and personnel
qualifications necessary to perform the maintenance. The manufacturer should also
specify those procedures that should be performed solely by the manufacturer, either
within the manufacturer's facility or within another approved facility. DOCUMENTS
10.Inspection

The existence of cracks can indicate severe deterioration and impending failure. Their detection,
identification and evaluation require accurate inspection methods.

Prompt attention is then required either to remove the equipment from service immediately or to
provide appropriate service and/or repair.

Caution shall be exercised to consider the increased susceptibility to brittle fracture of many
steels when operating at low temperatures.

NOV.COM
135
 If any manufacturing defects are discovered, they should be reported to the manufacturer or
supplier.

10.1. Inspection Categories:

The objective of these inspections is to detect service defects, possible hidden
manufacturing defects, and potential dropped objects.

Inspection results shall be reported on equipment files and drawings.

10.2. Category I:
This category involves observing the equipment during operation for indications of
inadequate performance.

When in use, equipment shall be visually inspected daily for cracks, loose fits or
connections, elongation of parts, and other signs of wear, corrosion, or overloading. Any
equipment found to show cracks, excessive wear, etc., shall be removed from service for
further examination.

The daily inspection shall include visual inspection for potential dropped objects and
retention devices or features that can be damaged, in need of adjustment, or missing. Any
potential dropped objects or damaged/missing retention devices shall be immediately
corrected.

The equipment shall be visually inspected by a person knowledgeable in that equipment

and its function.

10.3. Category II:

This is Category I inspection plus further inspection for corrosion, deformation, lose or
missing components, deterioration, proper lubrication, visible external cracks, and
adjustment.

10.4. Category III:

This is Category II inspection plus further inspection, which should include NDT of
critical areas and may involve some disassembly to access specific components and to
DOCUMENTS

identify wear that exceeds the manufacturer’s allowable tolerances.

10.5. Category IV:

This is Category III inspection plus further inspection for which the equipment is
disassembled to the extent necessary to conduct NDT of all primary-load-carrying
components as defined by manufacturer. All primary parts are lot tracked, marked and
listed with material certificates in the material record book (MRA).

Equipment shall be:

x disassembled in a suitably-equipped facility to the extent necessary to permit full
inspection of all primary-load-carrying components and other components that are critical
to the equipment;
x inspected for excessive wear, cracks, flaws, and deformations.

Corrections shall be made in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.

136 NOV.COM
 Prior to Category III and Category IV inspections, all foreign material such as dirt, paint,
grease, oil, scale, etc. shall be removed from the concerned parts by a suitable method
(e.g. paint-stripping, steam-cleaning, grit-blasting).

11.Frequency
11.1. Periodic Inspection:
The user/owner of the equipment should develop schedules of inspection based on
experience, the manufacturer's recommendations, and one or more of the following
factors:
x environment,
x load cycles,
x regulatory requirements,
x operating time,
x testing,
x repairs,
x remanufacture.
As an alternative, the user/owner may use Table 1 guidelines. Long-term planning shall
be adjusted in order not to interfere unnecessarily with the running operations.

11.2. Non-periodic Inspection:

A complete, on-job, shut-down inspection equivalent to the periodical Category III or
Category IV (for the concerned equipment) should be made before (if anticipated) and
after critical jobs (e.g. suspicion of overloading, jarring, pulling on stuck pipes, other
circumstances close to or outside allowed operating conditions).

12.Inspection of Remanufactured Components(Authorized Repair facility only)

12.1. Weld inspection:
Unless specific and more stringent recommendations apply, welds of primary-load-
carrying components shall be inspected as follows:
a) immediately after grinding,
b) after welding, but no sooner than 24 h after the part has reached ambient temperature,
c) in service, after a period to be specified in the user/owner/manufacturer's procedures

DOCUMENTS
except (unless otherwise recommended by the manufacturer) for non-accessible inner
parts remanufactured under the full guarantee of the manufacturer.

12.2. NDT:
The same NDT methods and procedures that detected the initial defects shall be used after
re-manufacture. In the event of remanufacture of primary-load-carrying components by
welding, at least two of the most appropriate of the following methods shall apply
regarding 12.1 (b):
a) MT, for ferromagnetic materials, or PT, for non-ferromagnetic materials, to detect
possible surface defects,
b) UT to detect possible defects below the surface. RT may be used as an alternative to UT
if shown to be at least as effective as UT on the same configuration,
c) Proof load test in accordance with 16.2, followed by surface NDT of the tested
component(s).
