Abstract: A fluid end is formed from a first body attached to a separate second body. Each body includes an external surface. When the bodies are attached, their respective external surfaces are in flush engagement. A plurality of bores are formed in the second body that are alignable with a plurality of corresponding bores formed in the first body. The fluid end may be used with seals disposed within recesses within each bore to seal against corresponding sealing surfaces. Further, retaining closures may be bolted to the fluid end bodies, such that the closures have a threadless connection to the fluid end bodies. Various combinations of such components may be utilized.

Abstract: A fluid end for use with a power end. The fluid end comprises a plurality of fluid end sections positioned adjacent one another. Each section includes a single horizontally positioned bore. A plunger is installed within the bore and includes a fluid passageway. Low-pressure fluid enters the bore through the plunger and high-pressure fluid exits the fluid end through an outlet valve installed within the bore. The intake of low-pressure fluid within the fluid end section is regulated by an inlet valve installed within the plunger. Low-pressure fluid enters the plunger through an inlet component attached to both the plunger and an inlet manifold.

Abstract: A hybrid pressure seal for use in a plunger bore or a stuffing box used in a plunger bore. The hybrid seal has a first, inner seal made of a first, durable material. The inner seal has a cut-out formed in its outer surface in which an outer seal is placed. The inner seal may have features on its inner surface such as V-shaped protrusions or a D-shaped surface. The outer seal is elastomeric. One or more hybrid seals of different configurations may be used in a packing, disposed between a junk ring and a lantern ring. The lantern ring may be integral with and made of the same material as an adjacent hybrid seal.
