Abstract

Apparatus for centralising a casing comprises a centraliser (10), for example, a bow centraliser, having a plurality of spring bows (24) connecting to spaced end collars (20). A stop collar (12) is secured on to the casing (2). The stop collar (12) is arranged on the casing (2) between the two end collars (20) of the centraliser (10) within the spring bows (24) so that the stop collar (12) selectively abuts one of the end collars (20) and retains the centraliser on the casing. The stop collar (12) is arranged to be adhered to the casing (2) and for added security, grips the adhesive bond.
