What is connection drilling?
1. n. [Drilling] A brief influx of gas that is introduced into the drilling fluid when a pipe connection is made. Before making a connection, the driller stops the mud pumps, thereby allowing gas to enter the wellbore at depth.
Why are drill pipe threads tapered?
Now you know. We are all familiar with national pipe thread (NPT). This standard features a slight taper (¾-inch taper per foot, or TPF). When you make the connections, they tighten and seal on the threads.
What does ANS stand for pipe threads?
American National Standard Taper Pipe Thread. Tapered for sealing, often without any thread sealant; for connections in nearly every type of service. NPS. National pipe straight.

What is pin and box connection?

It comes in a variety of sizes, strengths, and wall thicknesses, but is typically 27 to 32 feet in length (Range 2).
What is a NPT connection?
NPT (or National Pipe Taper) is a U.S. standard for tapered threads widely used on pipes and fittings for over 100 years. NPT connections rely on thread deformation- a metal to metal sealing design where the threads of the connectors themselves form together.
What is the difference between NPT and NPS threads?
What is the Difference between NPS, NPT & NPTF? Both NPT and NPS have the same thread angle, shape, and pitch (threads per inch). However, NPT threads are tapered and NPS threads are straight (parallel). Both threads have a 60° included angle and have flat peaks and valleys.
What is NPT for piping?
What is FIP and MIP?
MIP? FIP means Female Iron Pipe. MIP is Male Iron Pipe. As the Pure Water Gazette points out, sometimes FIP is called FPT or Female Pipe Thread. And MIP is called MPT or Male Pipe Thread.
What does SXS mean in plumbing?
Slip X Slip
2″ Elbow 90 Degree SXS Sweep (Slip X Slip) Sweep means it has a softer bend to allow water through easily to ensure a proper flow. “Slip” “Slip Socket” and “Socket” all mean the same thing. The pipe glues into it.
