Float Collars & Shoes

Innovex Float Shoes and Float Collars utilize the proven High Flow (HFX) Plunger Valve for applications where high flow rates, abrasive LCM materials and/or extended flow rates are encountered.  All valves have HNBR coated Phenolic plungers for good wear resistance and optimum sealing of the valve.  The Innovex HFX valve can be configured to work as a straight check valve or may be ordered with the auto-fill option, which allows for filling of the casing during run in operations. The 305 Series is available in 2-1/2" valve size and the 315 Series is available in 3" valve size - and have been tested to API Specification 10F.

The 340 Float Shoe is used to bump cement wiper plugs and provide an additional barrier against U-tubing, allowing for contaminated cement to be trapped within casing. The 350 Series Float Collar's optimized spring force allows the dart to seat on a protective retainer cup while flowing, and ensures sealing even in low pressure and horizontal well conditions. All valves have HNBR coated Phenolic plungers for good wear resistance and optimum sealing of the valve.  The HFX family of valves can be stacked when dual-valve configurations are required and have been tested to API Specification 10F.

The 701 Series Float Shoe utilizes an aluminum plunger valve that is capable of withstanding extreme well conditions, like pressures up to 10,000 psi and 400°F in hydraulic fracturing. It can be outfitted with ports and various types of noses to suit different applications. Featuring an integrated latch-down profile for matching plugs capable of withstanding 10,000 psi bump pressure, the 731 Series Float Collar is a truly tough piece of float equipment. An erosion-free plunger ensures a positive seal even after 24 hours of circulation at 10 BPM.

Innovex’s in-house engineered 357 Magnum Valve is an all-composite float valve developed for downhole applications where drillability and performance merge. Whether for deep-set surface, intermediate casing, or production casing, where moderate temperature and/or hydrostatic pressure performance is needed, the 357 Magnum Valve is the go-to valve.

Innovex's in-house engineered 338 Ultra Mag Valve 2.0 is an all-aluminum float valve developed for the most severe downhole applications. Whether floating production casing or facing extreme bottom-hole temperature and/or hydrostatic pressure, the bulletproof 338 Ultra Mag Valve 2.0 will hold up where others fail. Tested up to 18,000 psi at 400°F with nitrogen gas.

The Innovex in-house engineered 762 Ultra Mag Valve is an all-aluminum valve developed for the most severe downhole applications. Whether floating production casing or facing extreme bottom-hole temperatures and/or hydrostatic pressures, the bulletproof 762 Ultra Mag valve will hold up where others fail. Tested to 18,000 psi at 400°F with nitrogen gas using zero bubble acceptance criteria listed in the latest edition of API 11D1/ISO 14310.

Innovex’s in-house engineered and patent-pending Mother of All Shoes™, or M.O.A.S.™ (pronounced “MOAZ”), is the ultimate consolidated shoe track solution. The bulletproof equipment packed into the M.O.A.S. makes shoe track cement unnecessary as a formation barrier and/or a seal for casing pressure tests and/or upstream tool actuation.

The Spearfish Float Collar is the ultimate autofill solution for surge reduction in close-tolerance applications. Our team has addressed the limitations of the marketplace of the day. The Spearfish Float Collar's forward-thinking design goes beyond surge reduction. It empowers casing and liner runs at higher speeds, especially within close annular tolerances, effectively minimizing mud losses and reducing rig time during operations.

Innovex’s LOK-N-LOAD Thread Locking Compound delivers exceptional breakout torque capacity for tubulars in challenging downhole conditions. Low coefficient of friction during makeup, flexibilized epoxy resin minimizes vibration degradation—User-friendly 5:1 mix ratio by weight. When downhole conditions demand maximum holding power, LOK-N-LOAD executes without compromise.
