High Shear and Compressive Strength

Parker’s alloys exhibit high shear and compressive strength and excel in tight overlap, high-stage count, ball drop applications where predictable corrosion rates and reliable pressure holding performance is essential.

Our dissolvable aluminum-based alloys can be used in applications where high-pressure performance exceeding 10,000 PSI on a 1.8% is required.

Eliminate Drill Out With Reliable Pressure Holding Performance

Our suite of metal alloys exhibit high shear and compressive strength and excel in tight overlap, high-stage count, ball drop applications where predictable corrosion rates and reliable pressure holding performance is essential.
 

In addition to current offerings, our research and design teams at Parker's in-house material science labs have active development programs underway to meet evolving downhole challenges with products featuring delay coatings for high acidity fluids, plus faster degradation rates for low temp fresh water.

Whether you looking to purchase billets to produce dissolvable products in-house, or looking for machined dissolvable alloy products, Parker has the expertise to design, test, and qualify dissolvable materials and bespoke finished product that meet your downhole wellbore requirements.

Do you know the dissolution performance for your application

Now you can, with Parker's Dissolvable Aluminum Alloy Dissolution Performance Calculator.

Click the link to launch the calculator and enter your fluid temperature, salinity concentration, ball size, and overlap % to estimate dissolution time for the ball to pass through the seat fore and the time it will take for the ball to fully dissolve.

Parker is developing new chemistries that will soon be added to the calculator!

Degradable Elastomers

Parker's degradable elastomers exhibit superior toughness, extrusion resistance, and physical properties which stand up to the rigors of typical Oil & Gas environments. Additional capabilities include:

  • 10kpsi sealing
  • 80 and 90 Shore A durometer
  • Suitable for freshwater or brine
  • Ideal for temperatures from 130°F to 180°F
  • Produces flowable, non-clogging particulates
