Bushmaster® product family
Experience peak performance with the Fermata® Bushmaster®, a threaded and coupled connection featuring the Constrictor® wedge thread for superior strength, sealability, and torque. Ideal for long laterals, complex paths, and rotating while cementing, it excels in oil and gas, geothermal, and gas storage applications. Choose from gas tight (GT), liquid tight semi-premium (SP), or slim-line (SL) options for versatile, reliable casing solutions.
Anaconda™ product family
The Fermata® Anaconda™ is a semi-flush connection that balances strength, clearance, and torque with the Constrictor® wedge thread form. Ideal for tortuous well profiles, it enables quick makeup and easy running for efficient installation. Built to withstand high torque, Anaconda™ offers exceptional strength and reliability, with nearly 10 million feet of run history in challenging environments. Available in gas tight (GT) and liquid tight semi-premium (SP) configurations. The trusted choice for the most demanding applications.
Cobra® product family
The Fermata® Cobra® is a flush connection designed for OCTG applications, delivering superior torque, strength, and sealability while maximizing clearance. Featuring the innovative Constrictor® wedge thread form, Cobra® eliminates the torque shoulder – the common failure point in legacy flush connections. Proven in demanding environments, including shale sections, it supports efficient drilling and casing in a single trip. Available in gas tight (GT), liquid tight semi-premium (SP) and custom flush (King Cobra®) configurations, the Fermata® Cobra® is the reliable, versatile choice for your most challenging applications.
Rattler® API Buttress Compatible
FT-6™ / FT-8™
Modern demands often call for deep strings with true flush clearance. Deeper strings ultimately result in higher tensile loads. Most flush joint connections are limited to 60-65% tension efficiency and come with a costly metal-to-metal seal. That’s where Ares™ differs. We built a true flush joint connection with 70% tension efficiency and no metal-to-metal seal to save you cost in applications where premium sealability is overkill. Ares™ was designed with economics in mind. It was built to deliver what’s needed, with no waste. Ares™ can be threaded efficiently on standard API 5CT ERW or seamless tubes, offering the ultimate supply chain flexibility. The PrecisionFit™ thread form has a negative load flank to prevent jumpout and stepped crests allow for deep stabbing and quick make-up. Internal and external shoulders provide substantial torque capacity for rotating the string in difficult wells. This connection was built to deliver the performance you need.
