A salvage tool used to collect the junk fragments into the basket making use of the reverse circulation of drilling fluid near the well bottom.

The junk basket is a fishing tool designed to retrieve small debris, metal fragments, and irregularly shaped objects from the bottom of the wellbore. Manufactured in compliance with API Spec 7K, this tool utilizes a combination of fluid circulation and mechanical retention mechanisms to capture and secure junk particles. The basket assembly includes a pilot section that guides debris into the tool, a catcher section with finger-type or basket-type retention elements, and a circulation sub that directs fluid flow to optimize debris collection. Available in both reverse circulation and boot basket configurations, the junk basket provides effective retrieval solutions for various junk types.
