1. Description 

1.1 Threaded Connection

The tooth profile design meets the golden section ratio, which has a uniform and harmonious proportion relationship between the contour dimensions, and also has stable mechanical structure and excellent bearing performance.

The bearing side adopts negative angle design, excellent connection performance, bending resistance and compression resistance, reaching 100% performance index.

1.2 Sealing Structure

Metal-to-metal seal structure. It adopts rear sealing structure design, The compression resistance of the joint is improved, especially in the case of over torque.

The reliability of the sealing structure is improved by adopting the main and auxiliary double sealing structure design.

The non equivalent interference design of the primary and secondary seals is adopted to highlight the advantages of the main seal.

1.3 Torque Shoulder

The main and auxiliary double shoulder structure design, the main shoulder provides accurate buckle positioning, and the secondary shoulder plays a role under over torque and high compression to better protect the integrity of joint sealing structure.

1.4 Internal Profile

The streamlined internal profile minimizes turbulence and energy loss when high-velocity gas flows.

1.5 Coupling Design

The coupling performance meets 100% design requirements, and the outer diameter design is consistent with API standard,

1.6 Lower Stress Design

The lower stress design makes the connections reliable in Corrosive condition.
