INTRODUCING

THE TRI-CON

Patent-pending drilling system with non-threaded, triangular connection design.

Connecting the future of HDD

Upgrade your drilling game with the Tri-con Drilling System that features a non-threaded, triangular connection to help you go from pilot bore to pullback up to 4X faster than traditional setups.

“It was taking us about 30 minutes or more to completely transition our setup from the pilot shot to backreaming. With the Tri-Con System, we did it in about  7 minutes

Danny Alvarado, Ventura Directional Drilling

NEW TRI-CON 

COMPACT REAMERS

We have integrated the Tri-Con Connection into our reamer design too! 

  • Reamers diameters up to 10"
  • Tornado reamers available
  • Juggernaut fluted available
  • Reamers come with integrated pulling eye

BITS &

BIT BODIES

Pilot bore directly with Tri-Con Bit or use a Borzall Blade with our Bit Bodies.

  • Hard ground bits available in Eagle Claw & Iron Fist designs
  • Bits are compatible with Eagle Eye Pullback devices
  • Bit bodies available to accommodate common bolt patterns

VERSATILE

housing DESIGN

Newly designed side-load housings with Tri-Con fast connection type for bit connections.

  • Compatible DigiTrak™ and Subsite™ transmitters
  • 3-1/2" housings currently available with a 2-5/8" connection
  • Threadless Tri-Con bit attachment and rear API connection
  • Array of adapters available for flexible configuration to your current setup

Laboratory testing on the Tri-Con Transmitter housing demonstrated 25% higher tensile strength than competitive designs.

Change from pilot bore to backream with a pit as small as 18" in diameter without a problem with Tri-Con's non-threaded connection.

when does it

make sense

to SWITCH?

We are excited for you to try the Tri-Con System, which can increase your jobsite productivity.

 

We also believe that using the right tool is best for productivity, safety, and overall better drilling practices. That is why we've put together a table below to help you decide when your job or drilling technique may indicate that the time is right to switch to the tri-con system. 

Standard Connection Switch to Tri-Con
I need a more faster connection than standard threaded connection
I'm breaking or jamming pins with my spline connection's stress concentrations
I need to find ways to increase my production and decrease time in the pit
My threaded housing is worn out and I am ready to transition to a faster connection type
I need to frequently ream larger 12" diameter holes and larger
I'm looking for an end-load housing solution for my transmitter
I only run a 30,000 lbs class rig and greater for my jobs
