• Pins provide extra torque capacity when subjected to incremented torque resulting in pin to pin contact.
• The make-up indicator allows for visual confirmation of appropriate make-up, even with operating torque.
• Easy make up: no need for a Torque vs. Turns chart.
• Exceptional torque capability and compression efficiency developed through the simultaneous engagement of opposing flanks of the dovetail thread.
• Unrivaled running reliability and robustness given by the TenarisHydril Wedge thread.
