PDC Drill Bits
PDC Drill Bits (Polycrystalline Diamond Compact Bit)
A PDC insert is a tough man-made material that equals the hardness of a natural diamond and is three
times the hardness of tungsten carbide. This allows it to maintain a durable, sharp edge that, when rotating and pushed into a rock formation with modest weight on drill bits – particularly when compared to tricone rock roller bits, the PDC will continually scrape at the surface to cut material
PDC bits can be used with drill mud circulation in unstable water
saturated formations on with compressed air if the formation is stable
