Tricone Bit
tricone bit is widely used in drilling projects, oil&gas well drilling, geothermal well drilling, water well drilling, and trenchless drilling,. tricone bit is suitable for drilling medium hardness rocks, like limestone, shale, sandstone, etc.
tricone bit is widely used in drilling projects, oil&gas well drilling, geothermal well drilling, water well drilling, and trenchless drilling,. tricone bit is suitable for drilling medium hardness rocks, like limestone, shale, sandstone, etc.
Drillers use it as integral tri-cone bits, or split it into 3 segment(thirds, 1/3) to weld it on trenchless hole opener, foundation rock piling core barrel.
In water and geothermal well drilling fields, elastomer sealed bearing is recommended to achieve high cost-performance. Premium O-ring sealing, pressure compensation system and specific grease can greatly increase the reliability of bearing.
