Tail Piece/Housing Saver
Premium Tail Piece Adaptors & Housing Savers for HDD
The connection point between your transmitter housing and your reamer bears incredible tension and torque during backreaming operations. At Contractors Utility Supply, we offer heavy-duty housing savers and adaptors designed to protect your valuable locating equipment from extreme downhole stress. Engineered for an exact fit, our components absorb the daily wear and tear of drilling, saving your transmitter housing from costly thread damage and structural failure.
Transitioning from a pilot bore to a backreaming operation requires a secure, rugged link. Our selection of premium Tail Piece adaptor configurations allows you to confidently couple your transmitter housing directly to your downhole tools. Machined from high-alloy, heat-treated steel, these adaptors provide an ultra-reliable connection that handles heavy tensile loads and high rotational force without slipping or shearing in tough soil conditions.
Your transmitter housing is a major investment, and constantly changing out tools can quickly strip or gall its critical rear threads. Installing a sacrificial housing saver creates a durable barrier that takes the brunt of the makeup and breakout friction. Contractors Utility Supply stocks a variety of thread profiles to match your specific rig setup, offering a simple, highly cost-effective way to extend the lifespan of your HDD locating assembly.
