Clamp Quick-Connect System
Faster, more reliable high-pressure connection for frac hoses
Replace risky hammer unions for connecting high-pressure frac hoses with faster setup, safer clamp system.
MonoFlex
Dual-connection fracturing fluid delivery technology
Overview
Reduce safety risks, rig-up time, and NPT
MonoFlex™ dual-connection fracturing fluid delivery technology speeds up multiwell pad rig-up, reduces NPT, and limits HSE risks with a flexible, erosion-resistant conduit that can be used on any part of the fracturing fluid delivery system.
MonoFlex technology has been proven in field applications since 2017. By simplifying flow paths and minimizing the number of connections and flowlines, the technology has streamlined operations and optimized proppant and fracturing fluid delivery in more than 2,000 wells across North America.
Applications
Available to oil and gas operators and service companies, the technology has been used to connect
- frac pumps with the missile system
- missile trailer with the instrumentation skid
- frac trees with zipper manifolds and trunk lines.
