What Is PDC Cutter
PDC (Polycrystalline Diamond Composites) cutter is a kind of cylindrical inserts with upper diamond layer and bottom tungsten carbide matrix.With several sizes and shapes, they are used to make drilling bits for mining, oil & gas as well as other applications.
PDC Cutters in Different Shapes
To be used in different geological environments, there are different shapes of PDC cutters.
Flat PDC CuttersFlat PDC cutters’ diamond lays are flat with diameters 8.0mm-19.0mm.
Spherical PDC CuttersSpherical PDC cutters’ PDC parts are hemispherical with different radius.
Shaped PDC CuttersThere are also many other special shapes for special applications.
Applications of PDC Cutters
PDC cutters for different applications need different properties in working process.
PDC Cutters for Oil & GasDrilling oil & gas need the cutters to be abrasive resistant or impact resistant enough.
PDC Cutters for MiningPDC cutters for mining also need to be qualified in above mentioned 2 properties.
PDC Cutters for Other ApplicationsPDC cutters with common properties can be used in drilling well, road construction etc..
Full Ranges of Sizes
HG are able to manufacture almost all usually used sizes, diameters 8.0mm, 13.0mm, 16.0mm, 19.0mm, thickness 8.0mm, 13.0mm, 16.0mm, 19.0mm. Some of your customized shapes and sizes can also be realized according to the quantity.
High Abrasive Resistance
The geological environments are always complex and changeable, PDC cutters must be wear resistant to work for a long time. HG have specially a serial of abrasive PDC cutters.
The cutters had been checked by wear ratio test to ensure the abrasion.
High Compact Resistance
Some stratum requires the PDC cutters to be impact resistant to confront the impact force between drilling bits and the hard obstacles. HG will also arrange drop weight impact tests to check the PDC cutters impact resistance before the cutter are sent to you.
There are serials of PDC cutters with different sizes (8.0mm-19.0mm) and properties (abrasive/impact resistant) and grades (premium/medium/economical).
Please inform the sizes and applications for us recommending suitable cutters to you.
If you need, the reports are available.
There is no MOQ for standard sizes. For shaped dies, there needs a MOQ.
For new customer’s new orders, it will take about 2-3 weeks. After cooperating for a period, we can prepare stocks for your usually used sizes to realize immediately delivery.
Besides ensuring the cutters arrived in time, you can contact us if there are any questions or suggestions.
