Product: Redress Kit for Owen® Style “Shorty” Compact Setting Tool | SSW-10 & SSW-20 Compatible

1. Executive Summary: The Pump-Down Workhorse

In modern horizontal fracturing, lubricator height is limited, and pump-down speeds are aggressive. The Owen® Style Compact Setting Tool (often called the “Shorty”) is the industry standard for these “Plug-and-Perf” operations.

Royal Way Redress Kits for Owen Style tools are engineered specifically for the rigors of Pump-Down Operations. Unlike static tools, a Shorty is subjected to high-velocity fluid bypass and dynamic pressure fluctuations while traveling down the lateral. Our kits feature high-modulus elastomers and precision-cut PTFE backups designed to resist seal washout and fluid invasion, ensuring your tool arrives at depth dry, intact, and ready to fire.

2. Compatibility Guide: SSW-10 vs. SSW-20

Owen Style tools use a different naming convention than Baker tools. Our kits are 100% interchangeable with the SSW Series Compact Wireline Setting Tools.

Select Your Kit:

Option A: SSW-10 Compact Redress Kit

• Tool OD: 1-11/16″ or 2-1/8″

• Equivalent to: Baker #10 (but shorter stroke/length).

• Application: 4.5″ Casing operations, Thru-Tubing.

• Key Feature: Includes seals for the compact firing head and floating piston.

Option B: SSW-20 Compact Redress Kit

• Tool OD: 3-1/2″ to 3-5/8″

• Equivalent to: Baker #20 (Heavy Duty).

• Application: 5.5″ Casing and larger. High-force setting for large frac plugs.

• Key Feature: Heavy-duty O-rings to contain larger power charges.

⚠️ FITMENT GUARANTEE: These seals are dimensionally optimized for Owen® Style grooves. While similar to Baker, there are subtle differences. Royal Way guarantees a perfect fit for Owen-style hardware.

3. The “Pump-Down” Challenge: Why Seals Matter

When a tool is pumped down a 10,000 ft lateral at 400 ft/min, the seals face a unique threat: External Pressure & Drag.

• The Risk: Fluid turbulence can force its way past the seals, invading the oil chamber or firing head before the tool even reaches the setting depth.

• The Royal Way Solution: We utilize 90 Durometer compounds (Standard NBR or Viton®) that are stiffer and more resistant to “rollover” or distortion during the pump-down phase. Our backups are machined to tight tolerances to prevent seals from unseating during transit.

4. Kit Contents: Complete Rebuild Components

Everything you need for a full turnaround, packaged in a sealed, UV-resistant bag.

1. Compact Firing Head Seals: Specialized small-diameter O-rings to isolate the igniter.

2. Floating Piston Assembly:

   • High-pressure O-rings.

   • Dual PTFE Backup Rings (Virgin grade for low friction).

3. Cylinder & Adapter Seals: Complete set of static body seals.

4. Manual Bleed-Off Valve Seals: Essential safety replacement parts.

5. Port Plugs & Washers: (Included in select kits where applicable).
