The wireline grab consists of pin connection up and a housing with either two or three flexible prongs extending downwards. Pointed barbs are welded on the inside of the prongs so as to form hooks that will catch the looped end of the broken line. When a line breaks below the stuffing box, a full gauge such as a slotted skirt Wireline Wire Finder is normally used to both locate and ball up the broken end of the line before running the wireline grab.
The wireline grab is flexible enough to bend and can be gauged for the tubing it is to be run in.The prong ends of the grab should fit snugly against the walls of the tubing to help prevent line bypass.
Before using the wire grab, the wire finder must be run down and make the wire to a mass in the well, so that the wire grab can be successfully retrieved.
