Reciprocating Style (DogBone) Shear Coupling

Ideal For Reciprocating Application In Problem Wells
The Reciprocating Style DogBone Shear Coupling has been designed for reciprocating applications. It contains an engineered threaded joint that will break when the specified axial load is applied. The joint is pre-stressed to maximize fatigue resistance and prevent premature failure of the shear coupling.

Shear Couplings are used to reliably separate the rod string from the bottom hole assembly when the rod gets stuck. This prevents the costly and environmentally unfriendly process of pulling tubing and rods out simultaneously.
