Abstract
A threaded coupling for joining tubulars for oil and gas field operations forming connected tubulars. The threaded coupling has a body with an outer surface, an inner surface and a central axis, a first tapered edge, a second tapered, and a first coupling bearing face and second coupling bearing faces for supporting load, weight, or both on the connected tubulars. As the inner surface of the body is swaged onto each tubular, the inner surface of the body deflects away from the central axis, providing a plurality of bands of high contact pressure for each metal to metal seal between the inner surface of the body and each connected tubular to sustain seal pressures between the threaded coupling.
