WHAT IS THE PIT BULL™ DESIGN?

Let’s face the facts: directional drills are only as functional as their HDD transmitters.  This is why it is so important to protect your transmitters with a high-quality HDD transmitter housing.  

Melfred Borzall has also developed a way to relieve your stress of breaking off a bit downhole. The Pit Bull Blades and Housing (Melfred Borzall Pit Bull™ Design | Learn How the Pit Bull™ Housing & Blade Design Doubles Shear Load Capacity to Your Blade Bolts) design utilize machined dowel pins that can be inserted by hand into the steer-face of the bolt-on housing. Those same dowel pins match up to holes on the directional blade being mated up. This simple feature adds over 100% shear load capacity to your blade bolts since they are no longer taking the force on rotation. This will not only make your bolts last longer, you never have to worry about them rattling loose, or backing out either.

These nearly indestructible HDD drill bits & blades are built to withstand all the tough spots and rough patches Mother Nature throws in your way. Whether you’re drilling into gravel or dirt, Melfred Borzall has the right directional drill bit or blade for your project. Most of our blade & bits are compatible with our FastBack® pullbacks devices and all blades are compatible with the Pit Bull Design.
