Guiberson Swab Cups ... The Original and Still the Best!!
Here’s Guiberson’s complete line of field-proven tubing swab cups. You’ll find the type you need for any type of well servicing activity.
 

Type ‘NUF’
The dictionary defines enough as: “sufficient; as much as necessary.” That’s the ‘NUF’; it’s sufficient for your swabbing job. The ‘NUF’ is a high performance, heavy-duty, all-rubber cup. The unique design of the ‘NUF’ provides long life, maximum lift capacity, even under heavy load and deep swabbing conditions, and a dynamic shape that falls easily. The  ‘NUF’ is made from Guiberson’s high strength, abrasion resistant, low friction rubber. The ‘NUF’ is offered in  a steel or aluminum bushing. The  ‘NUF’ is available for both standard  and heavy wall tubing and may be run on any Guiberson swab.

Type ‘V’
The ‘V’ is a ring-type, single-lip, flexible, all-rubber cup molded on a steel bushing. The ‘V’ is ideal for lifting sand-laden fluids and for light-load swabbing. The flexible ‘V’ falls quickly and automatically dumps excess loads. The number of ‘V’ cups may be varied to meet the swabbing conditions and can be run on any Guiberson swab.

Type ‘HPR’
The ‘HPR’ combines three lifting rings for maximum lift capacity with a lip  designed for maximum lift power and  long life under heavy loads. The ‘HPR’ is an all-rubber cup, molded onto either a steel bushing for strength and durability or an aluminum bushing for use where  neither acid nor strong caustic fluids are swabbed. The ‘HPR’ is available for standard tubing or with a slightly smaller O.D. for undersize tubing and faster falling.

Type ‘TUF’
The ‘TUF’ is a flexible cup using a patented method of attaching the spring steel reinforcing wires along with a molded-in valve ring. The ‘TUF’ is molded from a synthetic rubber for lifting medium to heavy loads. As the name implies, it’s tough!

Type ‘TA’
The ‘TA’ is a medium-duty, all-rubber, variable lip cup. The ‘TA’ is made from a slightly softer rubber for greater flexibility under lighter loads. The ‘TA’ can be run on any Guiberson swab and is available with either a steel or an aluminum bushing in all popular sizes.

Type ‘UF’
The ‘UF’ is an all-purpose cup containing strong, flexible spring steel reinforcing wires and a molded-in valve ring. The ‘UF’ is made from a very flexible rubber for lighter loads. The ‘UF’ can be run on any Guiberson swab and is available in the popular and special sizes.

Type ‘MV’
The ‘MV’ is a light-duty, all-rubber cup. The multiple upturned lips pass easily  through tight spots and are especially  suited for fluid with a high ratio of suspended sand because the lips will  invert to dump an excessive load. The ‘MV’ is available with either a steel or an aluminum bushing and can be run on any Guiberson swab.

Type ‘J’
The ‘J’ is a very durable heavy duty cup with a  long flexible lip to provide a perfect up-stroke seal. The strong steel reinforcing wires are secured by a Guiberson patented retaining ring, which keeps the wires from snagging, even in the roughest tubing. The ‘J’ is available in popular sizes, as well as heavy wall tubing and drill pipe sizes, and must be run on a Guiberson Standard swab.

Type ‘GW’
Introduced in 1940, the ‘GW’ seals so well it has become the industry standard for total fluid removal. The ‘GW’ is a single lip cup, reinforced by molded-in spring steel wires, in tubing size cups. The ‘GW’ is ideal for getting the last drop out of the well and may be run on any Guiberson swab.
