Product Description

Far Eastern Drilling are API (API-7-1 & API Spec Q1) factory specializes in drill bits, such as Tricone Bit,PDC Bit,Hybrid Bit,HDD Hole Opener,Foundation Roller Cone Bits and related drilling tools,application fields includes for oil well drilling, gas well drilling, geothermal well drilling, mining, geological survey, hydrographic survey, water well drilling, HDD pipelines installation projects, foundation rock piling projects. We can offer both TCI and Steel (Milled) Tooth in a variety of sizes and all most of IADC codes in stock.

Tricone rock bits (also known as cone bits) are widely used in the oil and gas industry and some thermal power plant construction projects (e.g., geothermal power or coalbed methane development). Their advantages are closely related to their structural design and application scenarios. Below is a detailed analysis of their advantages in oil and gas drilling and thermal power-related fields 

 

• Multi-Cone Design: The bit consists of 3 rotating cones with teeth (steel teeth or tungsten carbide inserts), which can adapt to various rock types:
  • Soft Formations (e.g., sandstone, shale): Use steel teeth with large spacing to cut and scrape efficiently.
  • Hard Formations (e.g., limestone, granite): Use tungsten carbide insert teeth with high hardness to crush and shear rocks.
• Self-Cleaning Effect: The spacing between cones and the shape of the teeth help prevent rock debris from adhering, maintaining continuous cutting efficiency.
