Switchblade
Delivering next-generation frac plug technology with built-in testability, dual contingency options, and unmatched pump-down efficiency.

Switchblade
Overview
Eliminate Uncertainty in Your Frac Plug Performance
The Switchblade represents a breakthrough in completion technology, featuring Longbow’s patent-pending INFIL-TEST™ Technology for testable isolation before the frac. With built-in dual contingency and intelligent on-command isolation, it offers reliability and control unmatched by traditional plug systems. Designed from field experience, the Switchblade saves time, reduces risk, and provides the confidence operators need in demanding completions.
Application
Where It Performs Best
- Ideal for plug-and-perf operations requiring pre-frac pressure testing with full contingency capability.
- Excels in high-pressure wells where precise isolation and reliability are critical.
- Suitable for operators seeking to reduce time, cost, and fluid use compared to conventional ball-drop operations.
- Designed for multi-stage fracs that demand consistent, repeatable performance.
- Perfect for teams prioritizing reliability and efficiency in both standard and high-temperature environments.
