Threaded tubular component and resulting connection
The invention concerns a threaded tubular component for drilling or working hydrocarbon wells, said tubular component having at one of its ends (1; 2) a threaded zone (3; 4) produced on its outer or inner peripheral surface depending on whether the threaded end is male or female in type, characterized in that at least a portion of the end (1; 2) is coated with a lubricating dry film (12) the matrix (13) of which comprises at least one migrating sliding agent (9) belonging to the oils or waxes family and principally distributed at the surface of the lubricating dry film (12) such that the coefficient of friction of the film (12) is less than 0.07 at loads of less than 40 N while the coefficient of friction of the film (12) is more than 0.1 at loads of more than 200 N.
Applicator with hydrophobic coating transferable to contacting surface
A coating composition for imparting a hydrophobic film on a target surface is provided that, includes an oil of a silicone oil or a fluoropolymer oil or a combination thereof, a resin, and a dry lubricant. A solvent is present to form a solution of the oil and resin. A coating is imparted to an applicator that in turn can transfer the coating as a hydrophobic film. The coating composition is stable and able to impart hydrophobic film even after storage for several weeks at elevated temperature. The coating composition does so through the exclusion of synthetic waxes especially including silicone waxes. A kit is also provided that includes a wiper blade having the above coating composition applied along with instructions for the securement of the wiper blade to a vehicle to impart the hydrophobic film to a vehicle windshield contacted by the wiper blade.
OIL COUNTRY TUBULAR GOODS, THREADED JOINT FOR OIL COUNTRY TUBULAR GOODS, AND COATING MATERIAL
A threaded joint for oil country tubular goods has a solid lubrication coating film having good lubricity and rust prevention. Oil country tubular goods constitute a box or a pin used for a threaded joint for oil country tubular goods, the threaded joint formed by connecting the box having a female thread and the pin having a male thread. The oil country tubular goods includes: a resin coating film containing an alkaline soap as a solid lubricant in a binder resin, as an outermost layer of a thread portion. The resin coating film has a surface on which an alkaline soap layer is formed.
