Duraband - Model NC -Tool Joints
Duraband® NC from Hardbanding Solutions is a 100% crack-free hardband that provides maximum protection of the tool joint and casing as well as workstring completion tubing (also referred to as hardbanding completion tubing or tubebanding). Its microstructure consists of a hard, but tough tool steel matrix with a high volume of tightly packed micro-constituents. This chemistry ensures a non-cracking hard band with excellent wear resistance in open hole drilling as well as being casing friendly.
- Crack free and casing friendly
- Reduces or eliminates the expense of removing previous hardbanding prior to reapplication
- Eliminates costly premature re-application
- Faster turnaround time
Duraband® NC is unique. It is *Fearnley Procter NS-1™ certified for new applications to tool joints and certified for re-application over itself and other hardband products as specified in the NS-1™ re-application approval certificate. It is the only product for maximum protection that is applied crack-free.
