Abstract

A coupling apparatus for quickly connecting a cement head to a well casing includes an upper body adapted to receive a cement head while engaging a casing and further includes a lower body to fit around the casing end. The upper and lower bodies form an annular space for housing split ring segments which engage the casing. The upper and lower bodies can be adjusted axially to accommodate a variety of casing ends.
