What is tungsten carbide button for oil drilling？

In the design of an oil drill bit, tungsten carbide button are usually installed in the cutting part of the bit. These tungsten carbide button are distributed in a specific arrangement and are capable of efficiently breaking up the rock during the drilling process. Different types of drill bits have different sizes and shapes of carbide button depending on the geological conditions and requirements of the drilling to achieve the best drilling results.

For example, when drilling hard strata, larger size and higher hardness tungsten carbide button will be selected to enhance the crushing ability; while when drilling softer strata, smaller size ball teeth can be selected to increase the drilling speed.

When the drill bit encounters faults or cracks, the tungsten carbide button can withstand the sudden impact to avoid damage to the drill bit. And when drilling into special formations such as caverns, the tungsten carbide button can effectively bypass the caverns and move on by adjusting the drilling parameters and angle. During the drilling process, the drill bit will be subjected to impacts from all directions, and the tungsten carbide button are able to withstand these impacts without damage, ensuring the stability and continuity of the drilling.
