Thread Protector

Oilfield equipments are gaining popularity these days following the unprecedented growth in supplies in recent times. Thread protectors are used to protect the pipes during transportation and storage of oil. They mainly protect the threaded parts of the pipe from damage due to corrosion and other reason. Some of the important types of thread protectors are:
