Elevator Bushings designed by Workstrings International

Elevator Bushings

Elevator Bushings are essential inserts that provide reliable support for landing string, drill pipe, or tubing strings during tripping operations. Designed for insertion into an elevator, these bushings ensure secure handling and stability when moving pipe in or out of the hole.

Elevators for Drill Pipe or Drill String Components

Our manual and single-joint elevators, ranging from 2-7/8” to 7-5/8”, provide dependable, load-bearing support for pipe and other components, facilitating safe and efficient tripping operations.

Designed for efficiency, our hinged, load-bearing hydraulic elevators streamline the lowering and lifting of landing string, drill pipe and other components in and out of the wellbore, saving up to 1-2 hours of rig time per trip. The tapered, durable construction allows a single elevator to fit multiple pipe sizes, while bushings—available in sizes 3-1/2” to 7-5/8”—can be swapped out in just five minutes for maximum adaptability on-site.

Real Results, Real Feedback

“We needed 15,000 feet of drill pipe inspected to Cat. V FLUT, coated with Rust Grip OD coating, and bucked into doubles—all completed in under four days. Both Workstrings and Superior Inspection Services went above and beyond, and we are grateful for the efficiency and quality of their work in meeting our difficult turnaround to keep our project on track.”
