VAM® TOP HT (High Torque) is a T&C connection based on the main features
of the VAM® TOP connection. This connection provides reinforced torque
capability for liners and where High Torque is anticipated due to string rotation
during running operations (torque rotating liner while running, rotating casing
when cementing).It has been tested as per ISO13679 CAL IV requirements.
VAM® TOP HT is interchangeable with VAM® TOP product line with the
exception of 4 1/2'' size.
