Connections:

API 5CT is applicable to following connections which complied with API SPEC 5B:

  • short round thread casing (STC);
  • long round thread casing (LC);
  • buttress thread casing (BC);
  • extreme-line casing (XC);
  • non-upset tubing (NU);
  • external upset tubing (EU);
  • integral joint tubing (IJ).

Groups of Grade:

  • Group 1: All casing and tubing in Grades with H, J, K, N and R
  • Group 2: All casing and tubing in Grades with C, L, M and T
  • Group 3: All casing and tubing in Grade P
  • Group 4: All casing in Grade Q

Surface treatment: fusion bond epoxy(FBE) coating,coal tar poxy,3PE,vanish coating,bitumen coating,black oil coating as per customer’s requirement .

Testing: Chemical Component Analysis, Mechanical Properties (Ultimate tensile strength, Yield strength, Elongation), Technical Properties (Flattening Test, Bending Test, Blow Test, Impact Test), Exterior Size Inspection, Hydrostatic Test, X-ray Test,etc.

Application:steel casing pipe is widely used for fastening oil and gas well wall or bore hold,with bigger diameter than tubing pipe,including surface casings,technical casings and oil layer casings.

Packing: Bare/bundles/crates/crate protection at the both sides of tubes or as per customers’ requirements.
