Product Overview
Manufacture reliable, API-compliant oilfield connections with our API Round (RD) laydown threading inserts. Designed for the specific requirements of the oil and gas industry, these inserts produce the rounded thread form defined by API Specification 5B for Casing and Tubing.
Featuring a “Full Profile” geometry, these carbide threading inserts cut the groove and top the crest in a single pass. The rounded profile minimizes stress concentration and galling during make-up, which is critical for maintaining seal integrity in downhole environments.
Key Features & Benefits
- Industry Standard: The round thread form is the most common connection for general purpose well applications.
- The 16ER Standard: Our 16er threading inserts (e.g., 16ER 8 API RD) efficiently handle standard pipe diameters, compatible with standard ISO tool holders.
- Heavy Duty Capability: For larger casing sizes or heavy wall pipes requiring greater stability, we supply robust 1/2″ (22mm) I.C. inserts.
-
Directional Options: We provide comprehensive solutions, including standard right-hand tools and specialized left hand thread insert models (e.g., 16EL 10 API RD) for crossovers and fishing tools.
