Seco to Showcase Premium Tooling Solutions for Oil and Gas Industry at Houstex
TROY, Mich.- At Houstex 2013 in booth 1323, Seco Tools will showcase its
oil and gas machining applications expertise, as well as its advanced tooling solutions
for threading, turning, holemaking and milling operations specific to that industry. The show takes place Feb. 26-28 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston,

For applications ranging from drill pipes, bits and couplings to valves, pumps and even
wellhead and subsea equipment, Seco works closely with its oil and gas customers to
produce completely new technologies that optimize their processes.
Seco threading solutions, for instance, ensure clean and precise threads for superior
connecting and sealing of today's oil and gas components, while providing substantive
reductions to overall part cycle times. When compared with standard threading inserts,
Seco's threading inserts significantly reduce the number of required passes to shorten
threading cycle time by as much as 75 percent. The company's threading inserts, as
well as its turning inserts, make use of the Seco Duratomic® coating technology that
further increases insert toughness and wear resistance.
Houstex show attendees will also experience the technical advancements in insert
designs and drill body constructions Seco incorporates into its holemaking solutions for the oil and gas industry. These advancements optimize holemaking operations for the
tough-to-machine component materials often used to endure extreme environments.
Seco's Crownloc and Perfomax drills, along with the company's Bifix, Precifix and EPB
tool lines for reaming and boring operations, deliver dependable accuracy and high
performance in large-diameter holemaking for oil and gas part applications.
