Can you use Centek stop collars with non-Centek centralizers and Centek centralizer with non-Centek stop collars?
Our products are developed to work in conjunction with each other and we are unable to guarantee the performance of either our stop collars or centralizers with another company's products. In the event of an issue we would be unable to ascertain which product was at fault.
Our extremely tight production tolerances ensure our products are manufactured to fit snuggly over the casing. Lower quality competitor products require a larger clearance fit due to their ovality. This adds the risk of the competitor stop collar riding over the Centek centralizer. Traveling through tight spots, high inclinations and tortuous well paths can prevent the centralizer from rotating as designed, causing the potential for downhole issues and costly delays. Add in any ovality in the casing string and the problem is compounded
