Strong, resilient design - Made of 4140 HTSR ISO 9002 steel, the Rod Knuckle holds up to extreme temperatures and corrosion effects. Functional design includes a low 16.5" profile, two sets of packing and a check valve - all while weighing only 45 lbs
Easy to service - The simple design facilitates easy servicing. Replace internal components when required without ever lifting anything over the polished rod.
Enhanced lubrication options - Rod lubrication can be achieved using the "Knuckle Buddy" lubrication system - specifically designed for use with the Rod Knuckle.
Safe high pressure capabilities - The Rod Knuckle has been tested to 10,500 PSI and is rated at 3000 PSI, as well as 42,000 lb top-load testing without crushing the packing. The flapper check-valve helps prevent costly spills in the event of polished-rod failure.
Through extensive research and comprehensice field testing, Nelgar has designed a patented Rod Knuckle Environmental BOP Stuffing Box.

Proper use of the Rod Knuckle requires no bandaid solutions such as Adoil or diapers. This versatile equipment is designed to keep your oil in the flow line where it belongs...not on the ground.
