Abstract
An example double shoulder threaded tool joint connection includes a pin with external threads formed between a pin external shoulder and a pin nose. The tool joint also includes a box with internal threads formed between a box face and a box internal shoulder. The box internal shoulder may have a different pitch that the pin external shoulder. The internal threads and the external threads may be arranged and designed for connection with each other so that the box and the pin are connected with a common center-line and with a primary seal formed by the pin external shoulder forced against the box face and a secondary seal formed between the pin nose forced against the box internal shoulder. The internal threads and the external threads may have stab flanks with stab flank angles of between 20° and 40° measured from a thread axis, and load flanks having first load flank angles of between 60° and 80° measured from the thread axis and second load flank angles of between 100° and 120° measured from the thread axis.
