Each Cast Steel Thread Protector with lifting bail / Lift Nubbin has been load tested and inspected prior to sale. Due to the rough nature in which drill collars are handled, Diyak Ltd. recommends that the end users carry out frequent inspection to ensure that the bail is not cracked, threads are not damaged and that proper fitting to the connection is possible.

Note: Cast Steel Thread Protectors with lifting bail / Lift Nubbins should only be used to pick up or lay down one drill collar at the same time.
