ABSTRACT:
An improved well packing device of the type having an inflatable bladder reinforced with a reinforcing material, and also having an annular end piece attached to the inflatable bladder. The reinforcing material is looped at one end about a toroidal member. This toroidal member is contained in an annular cavity of the end piece. A shoulder portion of the end piece forms a slot, narrower than the toroidal member, through which the reinforcing material extends, thus providing an improved connection between the inflatable bladder and the end piece.
