Quality, Technology, Service––Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow
OMSCO’s time-tempered, tough products are
the drillstring components of choice for toolpush-
ers the world over. It’s been that way since the
1930’s. It will be that way in the 21st century!
Why?
Our dedication to QUALITY, TECHNOLOGY,
AND CUSTOMER SERVICE has made OMSCO
one of the most respected names in the drilling
industry. Our loyal customers know that
OMSCO offers drillstring components and acces-
sories unmatched for reliability and performance.
In today’s “faster, cheaper, deeper” drilling envi-
ronment, the value of that performance translates
to LOWER COST PER FOOT.
QUALITY is more than just a word at
OMSCO. Our tubular steel products are
machined from the highest quality steel available
and heat treated in our own custom-designed
facility, giving us an outstanding quality assur-
ance capability. Our heat treat facility was
designed specifically for the treating of oil coun-
try tubular goods and drillstring components.
Nothing exceeds its accuracy, reliability and pre-
cision. What’s more, this special heat treat capa-
bility is augmented by one of the most compre-
hensive in-house metallurgy laboratories in the
industry.
All of OMSCO’s products are manufactured
under process controls that assure the highest
degree of accuracy and insure conformance to
API specifications as well as established industry
standards. All welds are processed with state-of-
the-art equipment and are 100% inspected using
2
blacklight magnetic particle inspection and
ultrasonic inspection techniques. Each kelly
valve is pressure tested to meet all API specifi-
cations and to assure maximum reliability and
long life in the field.
OMSCO’s dedication to quality is further
demonstrated through our traceability program
for all products.
OMSCO leads the pack in product and
manufacturing TECHNOLOGY. In 1947, we
introduced the most dependable upper kelly
valve ever. Our simple, successful design
established the standard of the industry.
Later, OMSCO pioneered a unique trepan-
ning system, ideal for the precision machining
of drill collars and kellys...a system which
remains unsurpassed today! The result?
OMSCO drill collar and kelly bores are the
straightest, most uniform in the industry.
More recently, OMSCO developed MIR®
(Maximum Internal Radius) that dramatically
reduced stress on drill pipe by increasing the
radius at the junction of the I.D. and the transi-
tion area. Less stress means longer drill pipe
life!
Finally, unsurpassed CUSTOMER SERVICE
has always been the central part of OMSCO’s
business philosophy. Each employee, whether
in manufacturing or service after the sale,
understands that the most important element of
our business is you! For quality products, tech-
nology excellence, and unsurpassed customer
service, call OMSCO.

Directional-Wate ®
Directional-Wate® is a patented product designed by
OMSCO especially for the following applications:
• Weight member in directional holes
• Curved section of horizontal holes
• Transition member in vertical holes
The design employs many of the same features as
our Heavy-Weight Drill Pipe. All sizes are manufac-
tured by friction (inertia) welding tool joints on each
end of a specially manufactured heavy wall tube. The
tube section has an enlarged center section which has
three spiral grooves, each decreasing in depth as they
reach the midpoint of the tube. This causes the tube
to be more flexible toward the ends and more rigid in
the center. This unique design provides the following
advantages:
Advantages/Features
• Heavier - more weight per joint
• Full diameter center providing:
––Better “bearing surface”
––Better wear resistance (more wear area)
The no-wall stick design reduces the chances of differential sticking, mimimizes tube
wear, and provides more uniform bending through the length of the tube.
• More resistance to differential sticking
• More hole cleaning due to spiral grooves
• More stiffness in center, providing:
––Better stability
––Less stress concentration
––Less curvature, therefore improving contact
pressure
––Reduced casing wear due to improved load
distribution
• More surface area for B.O.P.s to seal.
• Size availability:
27 /8 ”, 31 /2 ”, 4”, 41 /2 ”, 5”, 51 /2 ”, 65 /8 ”.
• Hardbanding is available and recommended on
both tool joints and the non-spiraled midpoint
tube area. The pin and box tool joints have 4”
of hardbanding applied flush with the O.D. plus
1” on the box taper with fingers on sizes
4-1/2” and larger to prevent fluid cutting. The
midpoint of the tube has two (2) 2” bands
onlaid to the O.D. to prevent premature wear.
• Extra long tool joints permit rethreading. Bore-
back and API relief groove are standard on
4-1/2” and larger sizes.
When ordering Directional-Wate® please specify:
1. Tube O.D. (size)
2. Tool joint O.D. and I.D.
3. Hardbanding (See page 23)
4. OMSCO standard or cast steel thread protectors.

Kellys
Our specially designed, rigid kelly mill ensures
absolute accuracy and unsurpassed quality.
The OMSCO precision machined kelly is the
finest, most consistent quality kelly in the industry.
Most machining operations are accomplished on
equipment designed specifically and only for kelly
manufacture.
Straightness is the key to OMSCO’s manufactur-
ing process. Straightness is checked before, during
and after each machining operation. Kellys are rough
turned, straightened, bored with specially-designed
trepanning equipment, drifted, straightened again, fin-
ish turned on specially designed full length kelly turn-
ing lathes, and straightened once again. Joints are
threaded on CNC equipment and phos-coated, and the
kelly is straightened one more time. The next process
is the critical milling operation. All milling is per-
formed on specially designed, rigid kelly mills.
Smooth radii are machined on both ends of each flat to
assure the least possible stress concentration. The flats
are precision milled to API specifications. The kelly is
straightened once more prior to serializing, painting
and inserting in OMSCO’s standard kelly scabbard for
shipping and storage.
Features
• The finest quality 4145H Modified fully heat
treated alloy steel is used and has a Brinell hard-
ness range of 285-341 and a minimum average
Charpy impact value of 40 ft-lbs.
• Hardness and impact values guaranteed to one inch
below the surface
• Kelly ends and drive sections, I.D.s and connec-
tions machined and 100% inspected to API
specifications
• Kelly bars ultrasonically inspected over full length
and section
• Scabbards provided with each kelly. Rathole
scabbards can be provided upon request.
When ordering Kellys, please specify:
1. Hexagonal or square
2. Nominal size
3. Length - A
4. Bore - B
5. Size and type of top connection
6. Size and type of bottom connection
7. Plain or rathole scabbard*
* All OMSCO kellys are shipped in a protective
steel casing scabbard. For international shipment
or when shipping to offshore locations, OMSCO
welds the ends of the scabbard completely shut for
maximum protection from bending and/or corrosion.
Custom manufactured rathole assemblies are
available.

Lower Kelly Valves

The OMSCO lower kelly valve body is manufactured from 4145H

modified fully heat treated alloy steel. This valve is a two piece design
and is a positive opening, ball type valve. When installing the valve in
the drill string, the same amount of torque should be applied in the make
up of the valve as is used in making up tool joints.
By closing this valve before breaking a joint, you will save mud and
keep the drilling floor cleaner and free of excess mud. The heavy duty
body design enables the contractor to use this valve above and/or below
the kelly.
The OMSCO lower kelly valve comes complete with a hex-type
operating wrench and pressed steel thread protectors.

Features
• Self-lubricating, ball-type valve
• Stainless steel ball and non-corrosive seat are standard
• Two piece design with fewer replacement parts for easy, economical
repair

Hardbanding

OMSCO hardbanding increases tool joint

life and is applied prior to the tool joint being
welded to the pipe body. It is applied under
very closely controlled conditions resulting in a
uniform, low porosity wear-resistant surface.

OMSCO hardbanding is available in either

a flush or raised configuration, using fine, stan-
dard or large spherical tungsten carbide pellets.
With the flush design (F-1000, F-3000 or
F-5000), the tungsten carbide surface is flush
with or slightly above the tool joint surface.
With the raised configuration (R-1000, R-3000
or R-5000), the tungsten carbide surface is
raised to approximately 1/32” above the tool
joint surface.

OMSCO’s special hardbanding, “Super-

Smooth” (Series 5000), is a non-abrasive hard-
banding in which the tungsten carbide pellets
are buried below the joint surface and are cov-
ered over with a layer of hard metal. This
special hardbanding is recommended when
casing wear is a problem.

OMSCO offers other “specialty” hardband-

ing applications upon request such as ARNCO
200XT, or ARMACOR–M.

Hardbanding
OMSCO Mesh Type Description
Series Size
F-1000 40-60 Fine Pellet––Flush Five continuous bands of high density hardfacing extending 3-3/4”
over wear area including 3/4” on tapered shoulder.
R-1000 40-60 Fine Pellet––Raised Same as F-1000 except wear surface raised 1/32” above
tool joint surface.
F-3000 30-40 Standard Pellet––Flush Same coverage as F-1000 but uses standard particles of
tungsten carbide.
R-3000 30-40 Standard Pellet––Raised Same coverage as R-1000 but uses standard particles of
tungsten carbide.
F-5000 14-24 Large Pellet––Flush Same as F-1000 but uses large particles of tungsten carbide.

R-5000 14-24 Large Pellet––Raised Same as R-1000 but uses large particles of tungsten carbide.

S-5000 14-24 Large Pellet––Flush Same as F-5000 with hard metal overlay.
