8. Open the cap on the ProLube™ PMXPPL001 drilling & tapping cutting fluid and insert the mounted PMXSSSC125 tooling bit through the gasket via the hole in the cap to deliver the precise amount necessary for the operation. For larger tooling and subsequent machining, place one drop on the end of the ProDrill™ when necessary. AVOID PENETRATING OIL/SPRAY OR OTHER LUBRICANTS.

TIP: ACTIVATE YOUR DRILL BOTH ON AND OFF TEN TIMES IN ONE-SECOND INTERVALS. THIS STEP CREATES A “SEAT” FOR THE TOOLING BIT AND KEEPS IT FROM FOLLOWING THE ANGULAR BROKEN SURFACE OF THE BOLT. MOREOVER, THIS STEP ALLOWS THE SURFACE OF THE STUD TO CONFORM TO THE CUTTING EDGE OF THE BIT EVENLY DISTRIBUTING THE LOAD ACROSS THE ENTIRE CUTTING EDGE OF THE BIT PROVIDING FOR CUTTING EXTREMELY HARD SURFACES AND PROLONGING TOOLING LIFE.

Mud pump manufacturers frequently offer both types of pumps. In reality, the pump power end and fluid ends are identical. The difference lies with the method used by the pump to displace the mud.

In the early 1990s, it was generally accepted that the pumps used on mid-size and small boring machines should deliver fluid to the bore at a high pressure (1,800 to 2,200 psi/124 to 152 bar)) and have a low flow rate of 5 to 25 gpm (19 to 95 Lpm).

As the industry matured and operators became more experienced, it was found that a higher mud flow with lower pressures was the superior way to bore. In some formations high pressure, low flow is still preferred and provides the most success. However, in the majority of areas, higher flows are best to provide hole cleaning (removal of solids) and provide adequate bentonite for formation sealing and lubrication.

One advantage of plungers/packing is that the packing can be adjusted by the operator to minimize leakage until the bore is complete and the pump can be serviced.

Pumps with piston/liner technology work in the opposite manner. Pistons work well to prevent leakage when flow pressures are low (below 1,200 psi/83 bar). Pistons are generally larger in diameter than plungers, allowing the pump to run slower-this is good-for the same flow rates.

This system consists of a small centrifugal pump, spray nozzles, piping and collection tank. It sprays a mixture of water and lubricant (non-foaming soap or a small amount of liquid polymer), onto the back of the pistons.

Many boring machines are equipped with plunger pumps. These units are being applied where piston technology should be used, mainly low pressure and higher flows. These pumps frequently have leakage problems. To help operators combat leakage on these boring machines, conversion kits are being developed by some pump manufacturers to allow pumps to be changed from plunger to piston technology. Consult your boring machine or pump manufacturer for availability.

Economically, a good time to consider changing from plunger to piston technology on your pump is when the plungers are no longer serviceable and must be replaced. Conversion kits can be installed in the field and are considered bolt off bolt on upgrades.

If your mud pump has leakage problems, consider that you may be asking your pump to operate in a condition or application for which it was not originally designed.

A properly serviced pulsation dampener is critical for your mud pumps’ efficiency, safety, and performance. Unfortunately, there aren’t many resources available to educate personnel on executing safe and effective servicing procedures. Please review the following steps with your personnel for safe pulsation dampener maintenance.

Tired of changing mud pump pistons? We have your solution. The TD will work in all types of drilling mud including oil based, synthetic and water based. It was specifically designed to work in applications where water based mud is used or in situations where WBM is used on the top side & OBM is used on the bottom end. This eliminates the need for changing the piston midway through the drilling program. The “TD” or “Total Depth” name reflects our commitment to make a single piston that will last from “spud” to “TD”. This piston has been engineered with a unique friction reducing material bonded into the urethane of the sealing lip. Because the TD is built to withstand friction in the liner, wear on your parts is minimized and savings is maximized. The Patriot™ TD is also designed to meet pressures of 7500 psi as well as temperatures up to 220 degrees.

Since the establishment of our website we now service customers Internationally. Contact us and we can remove your broken problem. Jerry is your professional Bolt Extractor.

Rusted bolts and studs that break when being removedare the worst nightmare of any mechanic, and anyone else trying to fix a machine.Luckily, if you are a handyman who likes to take care of your vehicle in your own garage, there are now a number of options that weren’t available 20 or 30 years ago on how to remove a broken bolt.

When you have a screw head that is stripped or broken off or a bolt that has a stripped or broken off head, it can be impossible to remove without the right tools and the right methods.If you are stuck with a broken bolt inside your car, no need to worry, themaintenance tipsbelow will help you extract the piece of metal without much hassle.

What is the best tool orthebest way to remove a broken boltdepends on several factors. Sometimes a hammer or drill will get the job done. Other times, you may also get lucky and have enough room to weld a bolt or nut to the end of the broken bolt or stud. There may be times you’ll need more.

There are times when studs and bolts break in locations where you can’t get a hammer or drill, typically the case with exhaust manifold bolts. In these cases, let’s hope that the extractor or a pair of locking pliers will work, but you’re most likely going to need to remove the part from the vehicle.

If you can’t get pliers, extractors, drills, or hammers into where the stud or bolt is broken, another option is to grind two opposing sides flat so they can be grabbed with a wrench.

In the case of a broken stud or bolt  with enough of its diameter protruding for the tool to grip it, you can get the job done with a cam-style extractor. Bolt and stud extractors have evolved over the years from the cam-style extractor to multiple piece kitswith a tool for each bolt size. Essentially, both work on the principle of using the gripping power created by counterclockwise torque on the tool to grip the broken part with enough force around as much of its diameter as possible to extract it.

The cam-style extractor is used by turning the extractor to open the jaws enough to go onto the broken stud before being hand-tightened. Then a wrench or ratchet and socket are used to apply enough torque to hopefully remove the problem part without breaking it inside the head or block. Remember to use ample penetrating oil in the process.

First, by using a hammer, mark the center of the broken bolt with a centre punch.Hit it squarely with the hammer to create a starting point for drilling a pilot hole.

Also importantly, it will also reduce the chances of damaging the thread of the broken boltwhen you extract it. If the threads on either the bolt or the bolt hole are damaged, it may make bolt removal impossible. Furthermore, if the threading on the bolt hole is damaged, you may be unable to use a new bolt once the old one is extracted.

Activate the reverse setting on the drilling machine. A left-handed drill bit would be threaded in the opposite direction. The left-handed drill as it will torque in the opposite direction same as the broken bolt, which will prevent the bolt from being driven in tighter. The left-handed drill will grab and unscrew the tight bolt for you to grab it using a pair of grips, and remove it.

However, we recommend that you use the extracting kit that is suitable for the size of the bolt you want to remove.Drill into the broken stud to the specified depth using the drill bit that corresponds to the extractor size you’ll be using.

Since you’re drilling in metal, keep the drill speed slow and steady. Drilling too fast will overheat the bit and dull it quickly.Using a lubricant or cutting fluid can help speed the drilling process and keep your bit from overheating.

Once, you continue with the extractor; the tapered end will catch andtorquewould work to loosen the bolt once the extracting bit is tight. Next,continue turning the extractor counterclockwise with a wrench or ratchet and socketuntil the broken bolt is removed completely from the surface. Straight and square flute extractors must be hammered into the hole drilled in the stud to remove the stud.

Give the part holding the broken bolt a few sharp raps with a hammer. You don’t want to deform the metal but just apply enough vibrating force to break the rust loose. You can use two hammers on parts like exhaust pipe flanges where you can reach two sides of the part at the same time.

If none of the above methods work, there’s always the last resort: the Heli-Coil. This method replaces the threads after drilling out the broken stud. Heli-Coils may also be a first option when the bolt breaks inside a part: the bolt is not protruding from the part; it’s actually recessed in the part.

First, drill the broken stud out with the specified bit to the specified depth. Thread this hole to the proper depth using the specified tap. Twist the Heli-Coil insert onto the tool until the tab at the bottom licks into the tool.

Most of the methods described above are effective for bolts that are at least 1/4 inch in diameter. Smaller bolts that you have top-down access to can have a slot cut into them with a Dremel and small cutting wheel to allow you to use a screwdriver to remove the offending part.

You have to have clear access to the end of the broken bolt and at least 1/4 inch needs to be protruding to give you enough room to cut into. Otherwise, you will weaken the part in the process to the point that it will break again and worse, inside the part it’s stuck in.
