Single Joint Elevator

2-3/8″ to 30″ • 5 Ton

Elevators, as developed for the drilling industry, are a hinged device with handles that are used to wrap around the tool joint of drill pipe, casing (for collars) to facilitate the lifting or lowering of them singly or of the drill string as a whole.

In practical use elevators are highly stressed components and require regular careful inspection. In practice, sets of elevators and a spare duplicate are required on-site for general operations.

Texas International Oilfield Tools (TIOT) offers single joint (SJ) elevators to handle a large range of tubular. SJ elevators are used to add tubular to a string, hoisting a single casing, tubing, or collared type pipe.
