| Casing size | Min restoring force (67% standoff) |
|---|---|
| 3½ in (89 mm) | 396 lbf (1,761 N) |
| 8⅝ in (219 mm) | 1,440 lbf (6,405 N) |
| 20 in (508 mm) | 1,880 lbf (8,363 N) |
Values per the API Spec 10D restoring-force framework. Intermediate casing sizes carry their own API 10D minimums — ask Welong for the full size table. Restoring force is measured with load accuracy within 5% and displacement within 0.8 mm (1/32 in).
