Operation
The Dimple-On Connector is fitted to dressed Coiled Tubing using a dimpling Jig*. The Coiled Tubing is deformed into the dimples producing an extremely strong and durable connection. The dimples facilitate both axial and rotational loading, there are also two O-rings, one primary and the other back up, giving peace of mind for high pressure applications. The Connector when fitted to the Coiled Tubing should be pull and pressure tested using a Pull Test Sub* to ensure it has been fitted correctly prior to running in hole. These Connectors are particularly suitable for milling operations.
* Dimpling Jigs, CT Reamer Assemblies and Pressure/Pull Test Subs are available from WellEnTech
