    API Connection Make-Up Torques

    NOTE: I have cross-posted this to the API Code Issues Forum. Does anyone here have experience with API EUE tubing, especially L-80, at all sizes, being made up to the specs given in Bull. 5C1 and finding that it is just way too high? Over the years, I have come across this several times, and...

    6 5/8" API FH Tool Joint thread strength

    Can anyone refer me to the API Spec containing either the relevant calculations or tables showing the joint strength of the various API tool joint threads. I found a table in a string book that I have but it only goes up to 4 1/2". Any help would be much appreciated. DenAnde
