🔍 Key Concepts

💭 Think About

• Which name is typically used in industry for the part that has internal threads? • Look at each option and ask: Is this commonly used to describe internal or external threads on a pipe connection? • If you picture screwing two pieces together, what is the usual name for the piece that receives the other part?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which term refers to the internal (female) threaded connection on drill pipe/tool joints • Eliminate any terms that usually mean the external (male) threaded end • Consider which terms (if any) are not normally used for tool joint connections at all
