Foreword
This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1.Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents".
Drafting.
This document supersedes GB/T 18052-2000 "Measurement and Inspection Methods for Casing, Tubing and Line Pipe Threads", and is consistent with GB/T 18052-
Compared to.2000, aside from structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows.
a) The scope has been revised, and inspection methods for special threads on tubing and casing have been added (see Chapter 1, Chapter 1 of the.2000 edition);
b) Added terms and definitions such as "special thread," "ovalness," "sealing surface," "thread thickness," and "burr" (see 3.1);
c) The terms and definitions such as "internal thread," "external thread," "thread root," "thread crest," and "lead" have been deleted (see section 3.1 of the.2000 edition);
d) The terms and definitions for thread crest height, incomplete thread, and thread angle have been changed (see 3.1,.2000 edition 3.1);
e) Symbols such as A, L4, and P1 have been added (see 3.2);
f) Added abbreviations such as OM, PTL, and VTI (see 3.3);
g) The direct-connection thread (integral connection) has been removed (see 4.4 in the.2000 edition);
h) Increased requirements for inspection personnel (see Chapter 5);
i) The criteria for rejection due to incomplete 360° circumferential chamfering have been changed (see 7.4.4.1, 5.2.8.1 of the.2000 version);
j) The number of inspected threads that were recalibrated after the gauge was changed (see 8.1, 7.2 of the.2000 edition);
k) The inspection for straight-through threads has been removed (see 8.6 in the.2000 edition);
l) A method for measuring thread crest height has been added (see 8.8);
m) Added methods for measuring apex diameter and ellipticity (see 8.9);
n) Added methods for measuring the diameter and ovality of special thread seals (see 8.10);
o) The equipment used for angle and thread profile measurement was changed from a thread profile microscope to an optical comparator and profile projector (see 8.11).
(9.1 of the.2000 edition)
p) A method for measuring tooth thickness/alveolar width has been added (see 8.13);
q) A method for measuring the depth of the internal thread torque shoulder has been added (see 8.15).
