API Rock Bit 17 Inch 7 Blades PDC Button Bit Of Well Drill Bit
1. Description :
Steel is the opposite of matrix. It can of withstanding high impact
loads, but is softer and lacks protective features. The strength
and ductility of steel give steel-bit bodies high impact
resistance.
Steel bodies are considerably stronger than matrix bodies.
A beneficial feature of steel bits is that they can easily be
rebuilt a number of times because worn or damaged cutters can be
replaced rather easily. This is a particular advantage for
operators in low-cost drilling environments.

3. Bit Profile
4. Drill Bit PDC Cutters
Polycrystalline Diamond Composite (PDC) cutters are the main point
of contact for a drill bit. PDC bits remove the rock mainly by
shearing.
The PDC cutters are exposed to a lot of heating and cooling down
the well, a very challenging environment.
PDC cutters that have lower thermal degradation and more thermal
stability generally achieve higher ROP and increased wear
resistance. So, optimizing the cutter is important.
5 . Drill Bit Nozzles
Drill bit nozzles help clear the cutting area and cool the
Polycrystalline Diamond Composite (PDC) cutters.
Effective placement of these nozzles along with the angle they are
set at plays a critical role on how efficient the drill bit
performs.
Fluid channels also complement nozzle placement to improve the
clearing of cuttings.
6. Matrix Body
Matrix is a very hard, rather brittle complex material containing
tungsten carbide grains bonded with a softer, tougher, metallic
binder.
The hardness of a matrix-body PDC has the benefit of not being
susceptible to abrasion and erosion. It is effective in tolerating
high compressive loads, but, compared with steel, has low
resistance to impact loading.
Matrix-body PDC bits are relatively diverse, because matrix is a
compounded material.
In environments in which body erosion is likely to cause a bit to
fail, matrix-body PDC are the preference over steel-body bits. For
diamond-impregnated bits, only matrix-body construction can be
used.
