Abstract: A connector assembly configured to join a first tubular member to a second tubular member of a mineral extraction system includes a first annular body, a second annular body, and at least one fastener extending through the first annular body and threadably coupled to the second annular body. A sealed space is defined between the at least one fastener and the first annular body. The connector assembly also includes a lock ring configured to contact the first annular body and the second annular body. A fluid pressure within the sealed space is configured to drive the first annular body and the second annular body toward one another, thereby driving the lock ring radially inwardly to engage the second tubular member.
