King Cobra®: Custom Flush | Liquid Tight | High Torque
Overview
King Cobra® is the ultimate flush joint solution—engineered to handle extreme refrac loads while preserving the clearance operators need most.
Custom Flush Design
At less than 1% over API pipe max OD, King Cobra preservers over 85% of pipe body strength – compare this to 60% for legacy flush connections.
Built for Refrac Realities
Designed to withstand the complex loading associated with the tight clearance realities of refrac wells — no compromise to design factors.
Flush Joint, Full Torque
Powered by the Constrictor® thread form, King Cobra® delivers more than 2X the torque of conventional shouldered flush joints.
Locked-In Integrity
Negative load and stab flanks lock the pin and box radially—minimizing movement and preventing jumpout.
