Longest-Lasting Sonde Housings on the Market: Only from Kondex
Tired of replacing worn-out sonde housings? Kondex Drill Defender™ sonde housings deliver unmatched durability – outlasting all others – thanks to our patented laser cladding wear technology. You’ll drill farther, replace parts less often, and boost profitability – all at a cost-competitive price.
Kondex pioneered the use of laser cladding in HDD drill string components and has perfected this process over 15 years across multiple industries. Others have tried to replicate it, but only Kondex offers 50% more wear coverage with stronger, longer-lasting protection – at a better price than the “good enough” alternatives.
