For optimum performance on API drill string connections, JET-LUBE EXTREME should be utilized with the torque charts in API RP7G or by contacting the drill pipe and connection manufacturer.
Premium drill string connections such as HI-TORQUE® (HT), eXtreme® Torque (XT®), and XT-MTM connections, etc., utilize make-up torques based upon thread compound friction factors of 1.0. Therefore, use the torque provided by the premium connection manufacturer. Adjusting make-up torque based on thread compound friction factor may still be advised.
