Let’s face facts: directional drills are only as functional as their transmitters. Keep yours safe and sound with these ultra-durable and secure line of transmitter housings that protect your transmitter so you can cover more ground. These smooth operators look sleek on the outside, but are nearly invincible inside–where it counts.
ABOUT Transmitter Housings
Transmitter housings for hard-working directional drills
Side-load, Bolt-on Transmitter Housings
Designed for DigiTrak Transmitters and Subsite Beacons
These tough-as-nails transmitter housings feature heat-treated, chrome-nickel-moly alloy steel for maximum strength and durability – the same high strength, fatigue- resistant steel used in landing gears and propeller shafts.
Performance Features:
Heat-treated, chrome-nickel-moly alloy steel for maximum strength and durability (the same high strength, fatigue resistant steel used in landing gears and propeller shafts)
New hole-less lids reduce stress concentrations and fracture points in lid
Large lid tabs provide more contact surface for less wear and longer life
Double locking lid bolts keep the transmitter secure
Engraved batch number to trace material, heat-treat and manufacturing date
Engraved part number for identification
Removable, replaceable tail-piece increases longevity of the housing
Bolt holes are thread milled for a better quality thread and to allow more threads to engage
Removable, replaceable tail-piece increases life of housing while standard API threads adapt easily to various rigs
Epoxied lid slots to minimize transmitter exposure to mud

New hole-less lids reduce stress concentrations and fracture points in lid
Large lid tabs provide more contact surface for less wear and longer life
Double locking lid bolts keep the transmitter secure
Profiled lid top reduces drag and increases housing life
Removable, replaceable tail-piece increases longevity of the housing
Use one housing on multiple rigs
API thread connections–the most reliable connections on the market
Precisely placed slots for optimized signal strength while minimizing weaknesses
Versatile housings can be used with Eagle Claw, Iron Fist, or Bolt-On Bit Bodies
