| Standard | Produced under API 8C |
| Third party witness and inspection report available: Bureau Veritas (BV), CCS, ABS, SJS etc. | |
Product Features
🔄
HIGH OEM Interchangeability
Fully compatible with auxiliary sheave assemblies supplied by BOMCO, HH, LS NOV, RG and other leading rig manufacturers.
🏗️
Durable Forged-Welded Construction
The sheave body uses a forged steel blank welded to a reinforced housing for excellent load-bearing capacity.
🔥
Heat-Treated Rope Groove
Medium frequency induction hardening enhances wear resistance, extending both sheave and wire rope lifespan.
🛡️
Strict Quality Assurance
100% MT and UT inspection before leaving the factory ensures structural reliability for hoisting applications.
📜
API 8C Certified
Production standards aligned with API 8C principles. Our API 8C certificate number: 8C-0349.

Source Manufacturer Advantages
Over ten years of production experience providing stable supply, custom sizing, and consistent quality.
MTPM Auxiliary sheave assemblies are classified as functional components within the hoisting and mast structure of land drilling rigs, rather than standalone equipment. They support the wire rope routing in the lifting system and help maintain proper tension, alignment, and operating stability. Although small compared with crown blocks or traveling blocks, these assemblies play a critical role in the overall reliability of the rig.
Our auxiliary sheaves are manufactured in a facility with more than a decade of production experience, using forging-welded construction and strict process control. Each sheave assembly is designed to integrate seamlessly with the mast, drawworks auxiliary hoisting systems, and structural lifting points on rigs ranging from 1000 HP to 3000 HP. We supply full interchangeability with sheave assemblies used by BOMCO, HH, LS NOV, and other major OEMs.
