Product Features:
When selecting a protector for your next applications, consider the Piranha ‘Wedge Lock’ Cable Protector. The new unique ‘V’-shaped locking collars, an exclusive feature of the Piranha protectors, are designed with 4-point studs gripping indents on each collar to deliver firmer grip and to prevent slipping and rotation. The cross coupling protectors are also designed with one upper and one lower collar. Likewise, the mid-joint type comes with one single collar. All Piranhas’ cross coupling and mid-joint protectors are manufactured with high strength hinges plus extra weld to eliminate splitting and deformation. In addition, the Piranha protectors are designed with a standard ASTM 569 low carbon steel ellipsoidal body profile that eliminates the potential contact with the casing wall, reducing tubing string hang ups. Due to pump vibration, the channel compliant surfaces reduce the chances of fretting damage to the control lines. Key Superior Features of the Piranha Protectors:
