SPECIFICALLY FORMULATED FOR MEDIUM TO DEEP WELLS AND/OR MODERATE TO HEAVY ROD LOADS

The grade DXS sucker rod is manufactured from modified UNS G43300 nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy steel. After normalizing and tempering with specially selected temperatures to maximize impact properties, all rods are shot peened per our own unique standards, developed to significantly improve corrosion and fatigue resistance. Recommended for reciprocating rod lift applications, the grade DXS sucker rod is designed to maximize performance and improve runtime in fluids that are effectively inhibited to prevent corrosion. Furnished with a modified extended pin to fully utilize the makeup capacity of the connection, the grade DXS is designed as an intermediate grade to be used prior to the application of high strength rods. Grade DXS sucker rods are ideally suited for use in Progressing Cavity Pumping (PCP) applications with slim hole, high strength couplings.
