Abrasion-Resistant TA Style 2'' 2-1/2'' 2-7/8'' 3-1/2'' Swab Cups for Oilfield Services

Premium Rubber Swab Cups for Reliable Fluid Recovery

---

TA style swab cups are replacement fluid-lifting components for well intervention. Match the cup to the actual tubing internal diameter, mandrel and fluid load. Confirm the original profile and insert arrangement before placing a replacement order.

The existing range lists steel and aluminum insert options. This record specifies a steel core; confirm the original steel insert dimensions and grade for the selected cup. Alternative insert materials require a separate configuration review.

Size Guide & Application Table

---

Use the existing 2, 2-1/2, 2-7/8 and 3-1/2-inch size labels as ordering references. Compare cup outside diameter, insert bore and actual tubing internal diameter with the drawing; a nominal size alone does not guarantee sealing fit.

2-inch listed TA cup: verify original cup dimensions and matching tubing bore.

2-1/2, 2-7/8 and 3-1/2-inch listed TA cups: confirm each cup drawing and mandrel separately. Nominal size does not establish lift capacity or flow volume.

Why Our TA Style Swab Cups Stand Out?

1. Compound Selection and Wear Inspection

Compound selection and tubing condition influence abrasion and tear performance. Provide sand content, fluid and operating stroke when reviewing the cup, and inspect for wear during service.

2. Fluid Load and Cup Configuration

Cup profile, fit and fluid column affect lifting and bypass. Specify the intended tool arrangement, fluid-column height and density, and confirm the cup load limits for that configuration.

3. Compound Selection for Fluid and Gas Exposure

Review NBR, HNBR or FKM grades against fluid chemistry, temperature and gas exposure. H2S and CO2 suitability requires qualification for the supplied compound and operating conditions.

4. Manufacturer Direct Quality

ISO 9001 quality management supports manufacturing control. Agree cup dimensions, compound, steel insert and inspection requirements for the order.

Common Applications

1. Well Completion: Swabbing back frac fluids or completion fluids.

2. Production Kick-off: Reducing hydrostatic pressure to allow the well to flow naturally.

3. Workover Services: Removing water or debris from the wellbore.

4. Tool Fit: Identify the actual swabbing mandrel and retention arrangement. A bailer is a different tool and should not be inferred as a compatible application from the TA designation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: How do I verify a Guiberson- or Weatherford-referenced mandrel?
A: Provide the actual model, revision or drawing and cup dimensions. Equipment references identify the requested fit; they do not establish universal compatibility or OEM affiliation.

Q: Should I substitute aluminum for the listed steel insert?
A: Keep the original insert specification for replacement matching. Review alternative material against the mandrel, retention geometry and service requirement before ordering; depth alone does not determine insert selection.

Q: Do you offer bulk discounts for service companies?
A: Yes. As a swab cup manufacturer, we provide tiered pricing for bulk orders and wholesale distribution.

Steel-Core TA Cup Replacement and Wear Review

For this steel-core TA listing, retain insert bore, height and retention details from the original drawing. Photograph the used lip and insert when reporting wear, and describe sand content, tubing condition and operating stroke. Review fit and service conditions before changing the cup configuration.
