Streamlined, clearance OD facilitates running, pulling, and circulating. Exceptional torque strength developed through the simultaneous engagement of opposing flanks of the dovetail thread, permitting rotating and wash over in deviated holes without fear of structural failure.
100% internal pressure rated metal seal maintains gas sealing capability under high axial and bending loads. The shallow angle run out chamfer on the pin ID promotes uniform stress under the seal around the full circumference of the connection.
CB ring option
