A connection of connecting an end hub (22) of a flow line member (10) to the flange (32) of an associated conduit (26). A bolting ring (36) has a threaded end portion (64) adjacent the flow line member (10), and a cylindrical smooth end portion (68) extending radially inwardly from the threaded end portion (64). shoulder (70) between the smooth portion (68) of the ring (36) and the threaded portion (64) acts as a stop to accurately position the bolting ring (36) onto the hub (22). Upon connection of the assembled structure to adjacent conduits (26), tensioning of the threaded studs (42) results in torque loads exerted by the smooth surface (68) on the locking ring (36) against the smooth surface (60) on the hub (22) for transmitting loads to the hub (22) as shown particularly in Figure 5. The method includes the positioning of the locking ring (36) onto the hub (22) with mating cylindrical threads (64, 46) first being engaged and then adjacent smooth portions (60, 68) being engaged in a slight interference fit for subsequent connection of the valve (10) to conduits (26) by tensioning of the connecting studs (42).
