Overview of Square Kelly

Kelly is main driver of the whole drill string. It transmits torsional energy from therotary table through the drill string to the bit at the bottom of the hole. XINRUIDE Kelly is a long square or hexagonal, precision machined heavy steel bar that issupported by the swivel through the rotary table and is connected to the first jointof drill pipe in the drill string. Straightness of the kelly is very crucial in the manufacturing process, thusstraightness inspections are carried out before, during and after each machiningoperation. The flats are precision-milled to API specifications. All milling processesare performed on specially designed rigid Kelly mills to ensure tight tolerances andhigh quality drive sections. Each XINRUIDE Kelly is furnished with a pressed steelthread protectors.
