Description

SINODRILLS 3 Wings Step Drag Bits

3 wings step drag bits are one-piece construction of alloy steel cast with tungsten carbide cutting tips and gauge sides to ensure longer life. It has 3 wings and 3 flushing holes. Compared with 4 wings, 3 wings step drag bits tend to drill faster and aggressively, whereas, are shorter lasting and less durable 3 wings step style drag bits will produce larger cuttings force than chevron style drag bits. Rotary table speed of step drag bits should be between 60 and 80 rpm with light weight on bit (WOB).

3 wings step drag bits are economical tools when drilling softer geological formations and shallower depths, they are primarily designed for soft tomedium formations, such as Clay, Loam, Silt , Mostsoft-to-medium soils that have some moisture, etc.

Features of 3 Wings Step Drag Bits

3 Wings Step Drag Bits are meticulously engineered for optimal drilling in soft to medium-hard unconsolidated formations, featuring a design that maximizes both strength and cutting efficiency. Key characteristics include:

  • A solid one-piece body crafted from heat-treated 4140 alloy steel, ensuring exceptional strength and extended durability in demanding drilling environments.
  • Precision CNC threaded machining, guaranteeing seamless and secure installation for reliable operation.
  • Milled forgings that provide perfectly contoured seats, ensuring the carbide inserts are optimally positioned and securely held for maximum cutting performance.
  • Standard 5.5mm thick, high-quality tungsten carbide inserts, specifically chosen for their superior wear resistance and effective penetration capabilities.
  • Hand-ground relief behind each carbide insert, a crucial detail that ensures optimal chip evacuation and prevents material buildup, thereby enhancing overall drilling efficiency.

Applications of 3 Wings Step Drag Bits

3 Wings Step Drag Bits are highly versatile and recommended for a wide range of drilling applications due to their efficient design and robust performance in soft to medium-hard unconsolidated formations:

  • Mining: Ideal for various mining operations, including exploration drilling to identify new deposits and production drilling for extracting minerals, performing exceptionally well in the typically softer to medium-hard rock formations found in mining.
  • Exploration: Crucial in geological exploration, where precise and efficient penetration is necessary for accurate sampling and analysis of subsurface conditions across diverse unconsolidated ground types.
  • Environmental: Effectively utilized in environmental drilling projects for tasks such as soil sampling, installing monitoring wells, and remediation efforts, providing clean and efficient penetration in varying soil and soft rock conditions.
  • Water Well: Widely employed in water well drilling, particularly when navigating through unconsolidated sediments, clays, and soft shales, enabling the rapid and efficient creation of boreholes for accessing groundwater resources.
  • Geo Exchange: A reliable solution for creating boreholes for ground source heat pump systems in geo exchange (geothermal) drilling, as they efficiently penetrate the typically softer geological strata encountered in such applications.
