Proprietary Connections—GB Connections offers several specialty casing connections for a variety of services. GB Connections Drilling with Casing Connections are semi-premium connections used for high torque and fatigue resistant applications. These innovative coupled connections are suitable for all types of service, including Running (standard static casing applications), Rotating (to aid string advancement), Drilling (Drilling with Casing/Drilling with Liners) and Driving. With an inventory of over 50,000 couplings and an average seven-day threading turn-around time, GB strives to be the industry leader in service and quality.
GB Casing Drilling is used for conventional running, rotating to aid in string advancement, drilling with casing/liners, or driving. Used on lighter wall casing.
GB Casing Drilling Wear Sleeve/Hard Band is an integral sacrificial sleeve on the leading edge and critical areas on the GB CD connection to minimize wear during drilling operations. In more abrasive environments the sleeve can also be hard faced.
GB Casing Drilling Enhanced is used for conventional running, rotating to aid in string advancement, drilling with casing/liners, or driving. Internal shoulder for heavier wall pipe.
GB Casing Drilling Wear Sleeve/Hard Band is an integral sacrificial sleeve on the leading edge and critical areas on the GB CDE connection to minimize wear during drilling operations. In more abrasive environments the sleeve can also be hard faced
GB Casing Drilling Enhanced 3 Pitch, Large OD, Deep Stab. No Cross Thread Connection. Used for conventional running, rotating to aid in string advancement, drilling with casing/liners, or driving. Internal shoulder for heavier wall pipe.
