EMERGENCY SERVICES
MUD PUMP MAINTENANCE
It’s common for mud pumps, used for oil well drilling, to undergo harsh and stressful conditions. Bull gears, herringbone gears, jackshafts, and pinion gears used in these pumps often require repairs and gearbox rebuilds after years of operation. Whether you need an emergency repair or regular maintenance, Geartec has the capabilities to produce the replacement gears you need. We put our manufactured gears through a hardening process to reduce the risk of cracking and extending the life of your unit. Our reverse engineering and manufacturing process ensures replacement parts align with original manufacturing specifications.
MUD PUMP MAINTENANCE
Jackshafts are a key component of mud pumps and transmit power to create a reciprocating motion. These enclosed drive systems include a shaft and bearings that often need to be replaced or repaired. Geartec has the experience to service and manufacture jackshafts for the gas industry.

BULL GEAR MANUFACTURING
Bull gears work alongside the jackshaft to generate the pump’s power. Mud pumps rely on these large gears to run the machine. A broken bull gear could halt your operation. We can inspect and rebuild bull gears to your exact specification to keep your mud pump running. Learn More >HYDRAULIC POWER TONG GEARS
Our technicians will disassemble and clean the tong, inspecting every element for cracks and wear. If necessary, our experts will manufacture new idler gears, cluster gears, and cage plates before reassembling your equipment. Contact Geartec today for a quote.
IDLER GEAR MANUFACTURING
Idler gears incorporate a rolling element that works with the ring gear to open and close the tong throat. Idler gears require specific teeth pitch and diameter to mesh with the ring gear. At Geartec, we have the knowledge and capabilities to produce precision gears to your exact OEM specifications.CAGE PLATE MANUFACTURING
Cage plate assemblies feature gripping heads and rotating guide rollers to grip the pipe. Given the excessive force and high torque operations, cage plates and the rotary gear can break, creating costly downtime. We manufacture replacement cage plates so your operation can continue to run smoothly.OTHER OIL & GAS GEARING CAPABILITIES

FAQs
We service and manufacture gears for a wide range of oil & gas applications, including offshore drilling rigs, onshore drilling operations, fracking units, mud pumps, hydraulic power tongs, top drives, drawworks, and downstream processing equipment. Our expertise covers both original equipment and replacement parts.
We do both. GearTec repairs, rebuilds, and manufactures gears and complete gearboxes. Our services include disassembly, cleaning, detailed inspection for cracks and wear, replacement of damaged components, precision machining, and final assembly to meet or exceed OEM standards.
Yes. Through reverse engineering, we can create exact replicas of gears and gear components even if original documentation is unavailable. Our process ensures accurate gear geometry, proper material selection, and precise tolerances to match or improve upon the original.
We can manufacture custom gears up to 96 inches in diameter and shafts up to 17 feet in length. This capacity makes us well-suited for large-scale oil & gas equipment.
We use advanced hardening processes and quality-controlled manufacturing to reduce the risk of cracking and wear. These steps help extend the operational life of components working under high load and in harsh environments.
We are ISO 9001:2015 certified, a member of the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA), and all of our products are made in the USA.
Yes. During reverse engineering or rebuilds, we can recommend changes to materials, surface treatments, or tolerances to enhance performance, reliability, or service life.
For mud pumps, we frequently work on bull gears, herringbone gears, jackshafts, and pinion gears. For hydraulic power tongs, we service idler gears, cluster gears, and cage plates. We also handle top drive gears, drawworks gearing, and many other custom applications.
Yes. We provide inspections, wear analysis, and scheduled maintenance to help detect issues early and prevent costly unplanned downtime.
