Overshot Sockets

Overshot Sockets

Hardened couplings, which resist capture by ordinary wickered slips, can be successfully retrieved with O’Bannon Overshot Sockets. These employ a lower slip unit, which opens as it passes over the coupling, then closes below the coupling to hold the rod string in a firm mechanical grip. A conventional set of slips in the upper portion of the socket body catches rod body breaks in the normal manner.
