Varco Style 2631 Button Die for Large CMS-XL Casing Slips | Pan P/N 20231
The Varco Style 2631 Button Die (Pan P/N: 20231) is a heavy-duty circular insert specifically designed for large-scale casing projects. As casing diameters increase to 20″, 24″, and 30″, the radial load distribution becomes critical. The 2631 series is engineered for the CMS-XL Extra-Long Casing Slips, providing a high-density “pyramid” grip pattern that secures massive tubular strings without compromising the casing wall. Manufactured from forged 8620 alloy steel, these buttons offer the ultimate balance of surface hardness and structural toughness.
Description
Technical & Engineering Data
Engineered for Massive Loads
When running 30-inch casing, the weight of the string is immense. Pan 2631 buttons are designed to meet this challenge:
High-Density Grip Matrix: The pyramid tooth geometry is optimized to provide maximum contact points across the larger curvature of big-bore casing. This prevents the “slippage” risks associated with standard buttons in oversized slip bodies.
API 7K Compliant Carburization: Every 2631 button is deep-case hardened to 58-62 HRC. This allows the teeth to bite through heavy protective coatings and mill scale commonly found on large-diameter conductor and intermediate casing.
Dimensional Precision: Machined to a 1/2″ thickness with high-tolerance diameter control, ensuring a snug “seat” in the slip segments to prevent button-chatter or displacement under heavy torque.
