* Figures are based on a Jar Tester speed of 2-1/2 feet per minute.
Full speed, approximately 6-1/2 feet per minute, is needed to reach maximum allowable load.
Warning: All jarring and pulling loads listed in this manual assume that force is acting alone along the major axis of the Jar. Torque and
tension, or bending and tension, combine stresses that may lead to failure at less than the rated loads. Combining rotation and bending can
lead to fatigue.
CAUTION: Operators should also be aware that milling operations may cause complex stresses in the Jar other than the simple torsional
and tensile values listed on page 30. The weight necessary for milling can cause bending forces. When combined with torsional forces, very
high stresses may be generated in some areas of the Jar. Rotating the Jar in a deviated hole or at a neutral point may have a similar effect.
Milling operations are necessary at times and are not discouraged. However, operators should exercise caution and be aware of the possible
dangers when rotating under adverse conditions.

Operating torques are set at 50% of the calculated theoretical yield torque and are the maximum recommended operating torques.

allowance must be made in use.

The make-up torques listed above are the maximum recommended make-up torques for each connection.
Values are set at 50% of the calculated theoretical yield torque. Torques this high are not required for all fishing jobs.
Lower values will result in less thread wear.
The tightening torque values were calculated assuming Itcolube or similar zinc-based grease was applied to all threads and shoulders.
