Description
Specialty semi-premium connection machined from API Coupling Stock. The GB CD 3P Connection performances exceed that of standard API connections. Connection designed with 3-Pitch threadform for easy-stabbing, fast makeup without cross-threading. Innovative, multiple taper thread design (box only) reduces localized bearing stresses in critical areas for improved fatigue resistance.
Pin noses meet in the center for positive indication of proper field makeup. Pin noses, designed for maximum bearing face area, provide high torque resistance.
