Armor Combo Rupture Disc Tool

Patent No. CA 2,762,730 - US 9,540,904

Protecting Your “Assets”

The Armor Combo Rupture Disc Tool® was invented as a safe, efficient and economical way to combine both a Rupture Disc® and a specific profile together as one tool. This revolutionary design is accepted and utilized by the Oil and Gas Industry in the Canadian Western Basin for years and is promoted by the snubbing industry

This Armor Combo also works in conjunction with the Armor Single Barrier Rupture Disc Tool® to become a dual barrier system, creating the process safety environment we all strive for in our industry

Once the tubing string is at your required depth, the Armor Rupture Disc® can be removed by simply overcoming differential pressure within the tubing string.
