  • THREADED COUPLING END FOR A PERCUSSION DRILL STRING COMPONENT
    Publication number: 20180135783
    Abstract: A threaded coupling for a drill string component includes a body on which is formed a thread. A reduction in stress concentrations and a resistance to bending moments are achieved at the thread by reducing a thread depth at at least one axial end of the thread and by arranging an endmost flank of a crest or root of the thread at an endmost helical turn.
