Abstract
A joint for a sand screen assembly includes a mandrel disposed inline with a screen jacket. A first passageway extends through the mandrel to an inner circumferential surface of the mandrel. A second passageway extends through the mandrel to the first passageway. A first ball or disc seat is formed in the first passageway. The joint further includes a retainer disposed in the second passageway, a shear member affixing the retainer to the mandrel, and a first check ball or disc disposed in the first passageway. The first check ball or disc is constrained by the first ball or disc seat and the retainer. A diameter of the first check ball or disc is less than a diameter of the first passageway at the inner circumferential surface.
