A pup joint is a pipe without standard length. API SPEC 5CT pup joints are used to adjust the height of full length tubing or casing strings to exact requirement. They are also applied to adjust the depth of downhole tools. Central Steel can customize any length of the pup joint as our customer required.
Material Options
Tubing per API 5CT, Grades J-55, N-80 & L-80
Finish Options – External Surfaces
Rust Inhibiting Paint per API 5CT

Benefits of Pup Joints:
Pup Joints are a mandatory part of equipment in almost any well. Due to their shorter length, they are typically easier to handle and to use. At the same time, they provide the same performance as the tubing/casing/drill pipe that they are attached to.
Casing Pup Joints:
Outside Diameter: 4 ½ inch – 13 3/8 inch
Typical Lengths: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 ft
Grades: H40, J55, K55, N80, L80 T95, C110, P110
Connections: SC, LC, BC, Semi Premium, and Premium
Tubing Pup Joints:
Sizes: 2 ⅜ inch – 4 ½ inch
Typical Lengths: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 ft
Grades: J-55, N-80, L-80, P-110
Connections EU (external-upset) and NU (non-upset)
