Rod Guide
Specification Sheet
Superod® Rod Guides are designed specifically for use on Superod® Fiberglass Rods and are installed using a proprietary attachment process. Our Installation process insures the guides will stay in place and resist slippage on the rod. Superod® Guides have over twice the erodible area of conventional, molded-on guides.
Material: Polyphthalamide Nylon
Reinforcement: 34% Fiberglass
Operating Temperature: 350° F (Guide Only)
Depth: Over 10,000 ft.
Conditions: Engineered for aqueous H2S oilfield environments
Guide Dislocation Load: Average greater than >10,000 lbs.

All Fiberglass full-length rods are 37-1/2" long once they have been put together in the plant.
Superod® Rod Guides are designed specifically for use on Superod® Fiberglass Rod Guides and are installed using a proprietary attachment process. Our Installation process insures the guides will stay in place and resist slippage on the rod.
Superod®‘s Engineering Department will provide a rod string design using either RodStar or SRod predictive Software. Current well bore paths require the company to furnish a gyro or deviation survey so our design team can recommend placement of the rod guides to prevent unnecessary rod wear on your tubing.
