Overview

 

A durable cutting structure

Vulcanix bits are designed to stay sharper for longer with ShockWave™ shaped cutters on the outer profile. The shaped cutters provide a longer profile and extended shoulder for enhanced durability and less wear—letting the bit drill farther than conventional PDC bits. 

 

Staying cool with improved hydraulics

The Vulcanix PDC bit stays cool and lasts longer while drilling hard, abrasive lithology in high-temperature formations. Design features like an open layout with maximized junkslot area and face volume help improve flow around the bit. Multiple nozzles maintain cooling on the outer portions of the bit.

 

Strategically placed cutters 

Vulcanix bits include Prism™ shaped cutters placed strategically across the drilling profile. These durable, multidimensional cutters apply point loading to increase ROPs. A durable edge cutter in the cone of the bit absorbs loading and resists breakage when high weight-on-bit (WOB) is applied. A chisel-shaped edge on the nose profile and ShockWave cutters on the shoulder both improve drilling efficiency and durability.
