A Blind Box

The Rebco A Blind Box is a solid metal tool designed to jar obstructions downward through the tubing string, moving them to a position where they pose minimal disruption to operations. Additionally, the Blind Box serves as a method for parting the wireline at the rope socket, enabling the wireline retrieval using appropriate fishing tools.


Product Code: 105

Applications

  • Mechanically displacing sand bridges, scale accumulations, and debris obstructions downward through the tubing string.

  • Breaking up and driving through partially set scale or mineral deposits in the tubing bore

  • Cutting parted wireline at the rope socket during fishing operations by free-drop or jar-down action

  • Confirming tubing bore obstructions by depth-tagging during pre-job gauge runs.


Key Benefits

  • Solid construction with hardened, flat lower face concentrates full jar-down impact on the obstruction.

  • Dual-purpose: functions as both a downward impact tool and a wireline cutter bar

  • Available in custom ODs to closely match any tubing ID from ⅜" to 6⅝."

  • All sizes feature standard wireline thread pin connection and a fishing neck for safe retrieval.

  • Special order available for large diameter and custom configurations

  • Blind Boxes can be manufactured in custom sizes within the nominal outside diameter (OD) range. For specifications, refer to Table 1.
