Choosing a perforating gun

Category: Business

Perforating guns are used in construction, plumbing, and other industries to create holes in pipes and tubes. They're also useful for making holes in paper, cardboard, and other materials. The Type of Material Used. There are two main types of perforating guns: mechanical and hydraulic. Mechanical perforators use a spring-loaded plunger to punch through material. Hydraulic perforators use pressurized water to push the plunger through the material. The Cost of the Tool. While both types of perforating tools cost money, there are some differences between them. Hydraulic perforation costs more because it requires a larger tank of water. Mechanical perforation costs less because it uses less water. However, the price difference isn’t as significant as you might think.
