Very handy in the field, especially on underground drilling sites, inner tube vise-grips are available at Fordia in all diameters.
This useful tool firmly grips the inner tube without causing damage, allowing you to safely remove extended core barrels while in a confined work area.
Inner tube vise grips can be single or double , come with or without carbide inserts, and are also available in many configurations, according to user preference.

In few of our blogs, we’ve been looking at core barrels. A wire line core barrel typically consists of a double tube system that includes an inner tube and outer tube. We’ve looked at the parts that make up the inner tube assembly and the head assembly. In this blog, we will look at the parts of the outer tube and the role of each piece of equipment.

Directional drilling technology has certainly come a long way in the mineral exploration world, with Gyro-guided tooling and the ability to core while steering the borehole. There have never been so many options and methods of steering a hole.

In an earlier blog, we looked at the core barrel assembly, this being the equipment that is used to recover core, and plays a very important role in the diamond drilling operation. The success of an operation depends on retrieving core efficiently and effectively. We looked at the parts of the inner tube of which the head assembly is a part. It is a complex part so it is well worth looking at it in detail.
