The pier head refers to the use of high temperature and high pressure to thicken the two ends of the drill pipe to make the drill pipe more wear-resistant and durable.
Friction welding is a method of welding by using the heat generated by the friction of the contact surface of the workpiece as a heat source to produce plastic deformation of the workpiece under the action of pressure, and the method of welding the drill pipe and the joint is more solid and durable than the direct use of thread connection.
