B Type Drill Pipe Slips API 7K for Petroleum Drilling
SGPE B Type Drill Pipe Slips are heavy-duty rotary slips for secure drill pipe gripping, holding and suspension on oilfield rotary tables. Drilling crews use them to control drill pipe during petroleum drilling, tripping, workover support, well servicing and deep-well operations.
The B Type series helps crews hold the drill string, reduce unwanted pipe movement and improve tubular handling efficiency on the rig floor. These rotary drill pipe slips suit land drilling rigs, offshore oilfield platforms, workover rigs and well servicing rigs where operators need strong pipe control in demanding field conditions.
SGPE manufactures B Type Drill Pipe Slips according to API Spec 7K requirements for oilfield drilling equipment. Their torque-transmitting design helps transfer drilling torque through the slip body, reduce wear on key contact areas and support safer daily rig operation.
The series includes three main models: B Short Drill Pipe Slips, B Long Drill Pipe Slips and X Long Drill Pipe Slips. Each model serves different well depths, drill pipe sizes, slip body configurations and rotary table requirements. Customers can select the right model according to drill pipe OD, well depth, rig type, drilling program and field operation conditions.
What Are B Type Drill Pipe Slips?
B Type Drill Pipe Slips are rotary table slips that grip and hold drill pipe during oil and gas drilling operations. When crews need to suspend drill pipe on the rotary table, these slips provide the gripping force and body support required for safe pipe handling.
During drilling, crews move drill pipe frequently for tripping, make-up, break-out, pipe suspension and drill string handling. A suitable set of rotary drill pipe slips helps control these movements and keeps rig floor work more stable.
The B Type series also gives buyers a clear model selection path. B Short suits shallower wells, B Long supports medium-depth drilling and X Long serves deep-well projects where pipe string weight increases. This model structure helps drilling contractors, oilfield service companies, well servicing teams and rig operators choose the right tool for each project.
For procurement teams, this product also makes technical communication easier. Buyers can match the slip model with drill pipe OD, well depth, rotary table specification and site conditions before requesting a quotation. This helps reduce selection errors and improves purchasing efficiency.
