The internal female pipe thread allows the water pipe to bypass the screen for jetting.
The outer diameter may be flush thread or slip. Outside diameters are the same as the equivalent nominal pipe size. No Minimum Quantity. Helps shorten development time, improves well yield, used to thin drill mud in bore hole, can be used to jet screen, self-sealing ball.
