Endless Rod™
The superior continuous sucker rod.

Reduce Coupling Failures up to 99%
Approximately 50 percent of all jointed sucker rod failures are caused by coupling failures or improper makeup. Endless Rod addresses this issue by using a continuous rod design with only two couplings. By eliminating most couplings in the rod string, Endless Rod reduces coupling failures and minimizes tubing wear caused by coupling‑on‑tubing contact. The result is decreased side loading, longer run life for sucker rod pump systems, and lower operating expenses.
-
Lighter Rod String
Endless Rod is approximately 8 to 12 percent lighter than a comparable jointed sucker rod string. This reduction in weight lowers stress at the surface and reduces overall energy consumption. A lighter rod string allows operators to pump at greater depths without increasing surface pumping unit size and eliminates the need for rod guides. These factors contribute to lower operating and capital expenditures.
-
Customized Design
Each Endless Rod string is designed specifically for the well in which it will operate. Lifting Solutions’ application engineering team develops a custom rod string based on the well profile and operating conditions. Designing the rod string for the specific application helps extend run life and improve long‑term performance.

Energy Savings
Jointed sucker rod failures and friction losses can reduce pump system efficiency. Endless Rod is engineered to provide reduced friction through doglegs and high side‑load areas while increasing annular flow by eliminating couplings and rod guides. Lower friction results in reduced energy required to operate sucker rod pumps. These improvements support lower energy costs and a reduced carbon footprint.

Largest Range of Sizes and Grades
Endless Rod is available in sizes ranging from 3/4 inch to 13/16 inch, including the largest size currently available on the market. A broad range of grades is offered to support extended run life in specific well conditions. This range allows operators to select the appropriate rod configuration for their application requirements.
Boost your operational efficiency
Endless Rod is an engineered continuous rod product designed to improve well performance. It is manufactured to precise specifications using advanced technology, controlled processes, and high‑quality materials.
The product is suitable for a wide range of well conditions in reciprocating rod pump (RRP) and progressing cavity pump (PCP) applications. Lifting Solutions offers two Endless Rod™ product lines to support these applications: the Bare Endless Rod™ and the the Coated Endless Rod™ (CER).
