Safe Use of 2-Inch Hammer Unions for Oilfield Applications
Description
This recommended practice (RP) sets forth procedural recommendations as well as an engineering solution to the mismatching of a female 2-inch Figure 402, a female 2-inch Figure 602, or a female 2-inch Figure 1002 hammer union component (sub) with a male 2-inch Figure 1502 hammer union component (wing nut) as described in 3.2. The procedural recommendations described in this RP should be implemented to reduce further incidents. The engineering solution, which makes impossible the mating of female 2-inch Figure 402, 2-inch Figure 602 and/or 2-inch Figure 1002 subs with the wing nut of the 2-inch Figure 1502 hammer union, applies to the manufacture of new hammer union components and should not be applied in the modification of existing hammer union components due to unknown factors caused by field wear.

Abstract
This recommended practice (RP) sets forth procedural recommendations as well as an engineering solution to the mismatching of a female 2-inch Figure 402, a female 2-inch Figure 602, or a female 2-inch Figure 1002 hammer union component (sub) with a male 2-inch Figure 1502 hammer union component (wing nut) as described in 3.2. The procedural recommendations described in this RP should be implemented to reduce further incidents. The engineering solution, which makes impossible the mating of female 2-inch Figure 402, 2-inch Figure 602 and/or 2-inch Figure 1002 subs with the wing nut of the 2-inch Figure 1502 hammer union, applies to the manufacture of new hammer union components and should not be applied in the modification of existing hammer union components due to unknown factors caused by field wear.
