What is the cut-off procedure?
A method using the work done by a drill line to
determine when and how much to cut to move the
line through the system at a proper rate
If done too fast may waste good rope
If done too slowly may result in long cut or rope
failure
Product Bulletins
Why Use a Cut Program?

Extends ropes service life
Decreases replacement rate
It is economically sensible
Improves safety standards
Unions accumulated experience as most rigs use it
