Beginning with the proprietary ideas of Bob Payne, we have continuously perfected a groundbreaking process known as shot peening. This advanced technique involves precision strikes on the surface of sucker rods using millions of small steel “shots,” resulting in the formation of a resilient compression layer. Thus, relieving stresses caused by the natural effects of working in the well, shot peening significantly enhances the durability and longevity of the rods. Extensive research has demonstrated the remarkable efficiency of shot peening in extending the useful life of sucker rods.
We are dedicated to reshaping the artificial lift industry by continually striving to create the most cost-effective and productive products available. In testament to our passion for pushing boundaries, we have successfully obtained many patents for processes developed exclusively by our company.
Since 2011, TRC has been issued 16 patents related to improvements in sucker rods and optimizing the pumping system. Another 11 patents are currently pending including improvements in pumping units and gas lift systems. Together, with unwavering dedication and an unyielding commitment to innovation, TRC will continue to shape the future of the industry, pioneering advancements that redefine the limits of what is possible.
