Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • The Pro Model’s triple corrosion resistance enables safe use in offshore drilling with corrosive fluids.
    • HRC 45 material hardness (Pro) ensures longevity in abrasive environments.
    • 30% higher torque capacity (Pro) outperforms industry benchmarks for heavy-duty applications.
  2. Version Selection Guidance:

    • Base Model: Ideal for standard onshore drilling where cost-efficiency is prioritized.
    • Advanced Model: Suitable for mid-tier operations requiring enhanced durability (e.g., moderate corrosion exposure).
    • Pro Model: Best for extreme conditions (e.g., offshore drilling, high-torque fracking) where reliability and longevity are critical.

Example Use Case: With the Pro Model’s 15,600 Nm torque capacity, you can handle heavier drilling loads in deep-sea rigs, reducing downtime caused by component failure. Its ±0.8mm misalignment tolerance also accommodates uneven shaft alignment in aging machinery.
