Engineered Cable Head-Releasable

Impact Selector’s Engineered Cable Head-Releasable (ECHR-R) is a unique offering to the cased hole market. The ECH-R offers an engineered mechanical weak point combined with the ease of cable only release rather than releasing a torpedo or partial downhole assembly.

The Engineered Cable Head-Releasable is another emissions reduction and CO2evoidance® solution from Impact Selector.

Features and Benefits

  • Suitable for both conventional and polymer coated (greaseless) cables.

  • Engineered mechanical weak point for polymer coated cable applications. This provides the wireline operator the ability to release the wireline cable from the Engineered Cable Head-Releasable at a pre-determined tension.

  • Includes Weight Bar Extension with industry standard 2-6” Acme connections.
