Rotary Slip Insert 20162 – OEM Replacement for Varco 2162 | DenCon 1452 | B+V 80112

The Safety Shark Rotary Slip Insert 20162 is a premium aftermarket basic square slip insert designed for secure handling of 3-1/2" drill pipe and tubing in 3-1/2" rotary slip bodies. As a direct replacement for Varco/NOV 2162, DenCon 1452, and Blohm + Voss 80112, it provides reliable gripping performance for demanding drilling operations. Manufactured from forged alloy steel and heat-treated to API 7K standards, the 20162 combines exceptional wear resistance with the toughness required to support heavy drill strings while helping minimise pipe damage.

Precision machined for an accurate OEM fit, the 20162 is suitable for routine maintenance, complete rotary slip refurbishment, or replacement of worn inserts. It is designed for use with Varco Style RSST (Short) and RSMD (Medium) rotary slips, making it ideal for oil & gas, geothermal, mining, water well, and horizontal directional drilling (HDD) applications.
