PCD Drill Bits
Our Businesses
Diamond Synthesis TechnologyElement Six is an innovator and leader in the technol-
ogy of PCD cutters for the Oil and Gas industry. PCD
cutter technology has been developed from the deep
hole drilling applications such as Oil and Gas produc-
tion where reliable performance is paramount. The
experience gained in these extreme applications has
helped to refine and develop PCD cutters for mining
and construction applications where the depths of
hole tends to be significantly shorter but the ground
conditions remain very demanding.
E6 has been at the forefront of synthetic diamond
technology since the 1950s. The range of products
and applications has grown exponentially as the dia-
mond synthesis technology has developed.
High Wear Resistant Tungsten Carbide
Relative Performance achieved in Highly Abrasive Sandstone
Polycrystalline Diamond
In applications where drill bit life is dominated by abrasive wear PCD bits perform in an order of magnitude
compared to the lifetime achieved by tungsten carbide bits. PCD drill bits are particularly suited for abrasive
rock conditions where tool life, high penetration rates and consistent drilled hole quality are important.
Drilling ProductivityThe retention of sharp and effective cutting edges on
the drill bit facilitates consistently high rates of pene-
tration, protection of the gauge diameter and reduces
the interruptions caused by worn or blunted bits.
SafetySince the PCD bits last many times longer than the
equivalent bits with tungsten carbide inserts the
o perators can remain in the safe environment away
from the unsupported roof.
The PCD bits tend to cut very efficiently thus
reducing the fines generated and creating a less
demanding working environment in terms of both
dust and noise levels.
Energy RequirementThe wear resistance of the PCD layer results in the
bit retaining the cutting edge more effectively thus
reducing the thrust requirement.
ApplicationsThe PCD bits are particularly suited for the drilling
of hard competent formations. Roof bolting, cable
bolting, as well as face drilling and deep hole
drilling such as probing ahead of the cutting face
and methane drainage are comfortably within the
capability of PCD bits. In certain conditions the PCD
bits can be used as a successful alternative to rotary
percussive bits with consequential benefits in reduced
noise levels, less demand on the drill string and lower
maintenance on the rotary actuator.
Bit Design & AttachmentsPCD bits as a general rule require adequate flushing
in order to gain the optimum result from the bit.
Bits ranging from 25mm to 112mm in diameter
can be supplied. A variety of configurations and
a ttachment methods, depending on the rock
formation and the available drilling equipment, can
be provided. Our sales engineers will be happy to
discuss individual applications and requirements.
