Royal Way TA Swab Cups for Fluid and Thermal-Cycle Selection
TA Cup Compound Review: Combine Oil Exposure with the Temperature Cycle
A TA cup enquiry for oil and heat exposure needs the exact well fluid and temperature history. Select the rubber grade and bushing with the approved profile; a nominal tubing size or colour does not establish heat or chemical resistance.
| Service detail |
Information to provide |
| Fluid |
Oil, water, treatment additives and solids content for compound review. |
| Temperature |
Start-up, normal and peak temperatures, duration and repeated cycles. |
| Profile and fit |
TA drawing, actual tubing bore and tool or mandrel reference. |
| Bushing |
Material, bore and height to match the tool assembly. |
| Hardness |
Approved rubber grade, target hardness, Shore scale and test requirement. |
Agree the compound and sample acceptance for the actual duty before repeat supply. No universal temperature, pressure or lifting-load rating is implied; special sour-gas exposure needs separate qualification.
TA / Type A swab cups are listed for medium-load tubing swabbing. Select the cup profile, rubber compound and bushing for the actual tubing bore and swab tool rather than assuming one cup suits every well condition.
Royal Way supplies TA-profile swab cups with a rubber body and metal bushing. Nitrile or other specified compounds require selection against the well fluid, temperature and solids content. Confirm the approved part drawing and compound before ordering.

V type
V-type cups are shown as related profile references. Their lip geometry and construction differ from TA cups; confirm the cup and tool specification separately. The number of cups and operating load depend on the tool and well conditions.
TA type
The TA cup is described as a medium-load design around a steel or aluminium bushing. Under load, the rubber body compresses to support fluid lifting. Confirm bushing bore, cup dimensions and tool fit for the selected tubing size. Compound choice and lifting suitability depend on the well fluid, temperature, sand content and operating procedure; the profile alone does not establish a rated load.
MV type
MV cups are shown for comparison as a multiple-lip profile with a metal bushing. Specify their dimensions and compound separately; an MV cup is not interchangeable with a TA cup solely because the nominal tubing reference is the same.
Company introduction
Royal Way supplies rubber and related oilfield components to agreed drawings and application requirements. For a repeat TA swab cup order, retain the approved part number, profile drawing and compound reference.
Custom part enquiries should include the tubing and tool details, dimensional tolerances, bushing requirement and service conditions. Agree sample inspection and fit acceptance before production.
Send the requested quantity, packing requirements and drawing revision so tooling, supply and delivery can be confirmed in the quotation.
Our ISO 9001 quality management supports specification review and inspection. Special conformity or service requirements must be defined for the actual compound and supplied part.
