Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003822
The specific geometric profile of the threads on a pipe connection, including elements such as pitch, taper, and flank angle. This design dictates how well two threaded components engage and seal under pressure. Common threadforms include API (American Petroleum Institute) round threads and buttress threads, each suited for different operational conditions.
