Interchangeable Parts
Insert Carriers
- Multiple sizes of insert carriers to cover the full range of gripping
- Carrier utilize a combination of tong dies and handling tool dies that need to be changed out to grip different sizes without needing to open the FMS
- Carriers are easily interchangeable, utilizing a spring latch to hold the carriers secure
- Due to geometry, the tension rating for carriers decreases for the smaller pipe sizes
Wear Guides
- Need to be changed for individual sizes of casing or drill pipe in order to help ensure a good bite
- Sized to allow common centralizer sizes through without need to remove them

FMS Sensor Package
- Includes two linear sensors inside of cylinders
- Includes two pressure transducers included inside of control console (sold separately)
- Both sensors work with McCoy’s Edge Server
- Linear Sensors determine if the casing or drill pipe is appropriately gripped before releasing the slips
- Pressure transducer determines if adequate pressure is being supplied
