  • Publication number: 20250084709
    Abstract: A make-up/break-out evaluation method that makes it possible to evaluate the seizure resistance of a threaded joint for oil country tubular goods accurately without performing a test using a threaded joint with an actual length. When performing test with respect to the threaded joint for oil country tubular goods formed by attaching a pin lower portion to box upper portion with its axis directed vertically, a test pin formed by a pin shorter than an evaluation target pin used as test pin; a weight attached to test pin upper portion; mass of the weight is equal to or greater than a mass obtained by subtracting the test pin mass from the evaluation target pin mass; an initial set position for test pin is set where test pin five crests or ¼ of all test pin crests, whichever is greater, or more are exposed from the box upper end face.
