Clipper Weight Indicators

Our compact, easy to view, clipper weight indicator (also known as a deflection weight indicator or line scale) has been the preferred weight indicator on small drilling rigs and workover rigs for years.

Contact Instruments’ Clipper Style Weight Indicator is a cost effective way of being able to move a single weight Indicator from rig to rig as it utilizes 10 different dials with line size and number of lines strung. Each Clipper Weight Indicator comes mounted in a steel box with a 2” NPT coupling on the bottom so it can be mounted in a spot for easy viewing by the driller. The Clipper Weight Indicator system consists of a 12″ Weight Gauge c/w 10 dials mounted in a steel box, a tension load cell, a C-Clamp and a 25′ high pressure hose.
