StraightLine HDD and Armadrillco Sign an Agreement StraightLine HDD, Inc. finalized an exclusive agreement with Armadrillco, Inc. for distribution and manufacturing of Armadrillco down hole products. The agreement strengthens StraightLine’s tooling portfolio and gives clients access to Armadrillco’s innovative designs and patented technologies. “Armadrillco’s HDD [horizontal direc- tional drilling] tools are highly comple- mentary to our tooling portfolio,” stated StraightLine HDD President Joe Phillips. “Like our tooling, the Armadrillco family of products is well-known to be some of the longest lasting tools in the industry.” Initially, the agreement covers high- flow side-load transmitter housings and slantface drill heads, along with a variety of dirt bits and rock tools. StraightLine plans to expand the product offering, beginning with a number of side-load housings in early 2017. “This agreement opens up opportu- nities for both companies,” explained Armadrillco Founder/Owner Chuck Webb. “StraightLine’s manufacturing expertise creates efficiencies in both production and quality improvement. Just as rele- vant, the agreement’s distribution element creates tremendous product breadth and opens up an entirely new level of exposure for Armadrillco products.” For a link to this website, visit: worldwidedrillingresource.com
