TECHNICAL DATA HANDBOOK
Note 1 - To determine weights of drill collars not shown use the following formula:
2 2
(Area O.D. - Area I.D.) x 3.408 = Wt./Ft. OR (O.D. — I.D. ) X 2.67 = Lb./Ft.
Note 2 - The weight of a SPIRAL drill collar is approximately 96% the Wt. of a round collar the same O.D. or 4% reduction.
7.84 kg of steel will displace 1 litre of fluid

Notes:
1. Make Up Torque figures preceded by an astrik (*) indicate that the weaker member for the corresponding outside
diameter (OD) and bore is the box; for all other torque values, the weaker member is the pin.
2. The Recommeded Make up Torque values are based on a unit stress of 62,500 psi (87,500 psi for 2-7/8 PAC & 56,200
psi for H-90 connections).
3. Stress-relief features are disregarded for make up torque for all connections.
4. Stress-relief features are considered in the Torque to Yield and the Tensile Strength of all connections NC38(3-1/2 IF)
and larger.
5. Normal make up torque range is tabulated values plus 10%.
