What is Hard Rock Drill Bits
Hard Rock Drill Bit - a drilling method that uses a roller bits. In roller-bit drilling, rock is cut by hard-alloy teeth projecting from rolling cutters, which rotate on the drill-bit bearings. Inturn, the drill bit rotates at a high rate, and presses against the bottom hole with a high axial force. The teeth of the rolling cutters roll over the bottom hole and, owing to the large stresses that develop in the area of contact between the teeth and the rock, cut the rock by crushing and chipping. As the hardness of therock increases, the rotation rate decreases and the axial force increases. Destroyed at the mine the rock is removed to the surface by air compressor, mud pump, or a combination of these methods.All bits the above are manufactured according to strict standards, set forth by the American Petroleum Institute (API). And classified according to characteristics set forth by the International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC).

Common fault analysis of Tricone bits
| Common fault | Fault description | Method |
| Early wear of the shirttail | Abrasive formations, bent drill rod, seriously worn stabilizer and insufficient air for drilling rate attained etc, are all the causes which result in premature shirttail wear. In this case, the configuration of cones is good and the amount of inserts wear is small. Shairttail wear can also allow the big roller bearings to fall out resulting in bit failure. | The designer should strength the shirttail with certain measures to increase the wear-resistance capacity of shirttails. |
| Early wear and loose movement of the bearing | Excessive weight on bit, insufficent air to clean the hole and/or cool the bearing, leads to bearings overheating due to improper cooling and poor cuttings removal can shorten the service life of bit bearing. | Reduce bit pressure and increase air pressure |
| Cutting structure failure | Excessive WOB or Rotation speed; Wrong bit selection; Cuttings blowing in bad conditions caused repeating crushing. | Correctly select operating parameters and rotary types for specific working conditions |
Working theory of TCI tricone bit
The medium formation TCI tricone bits features aggressive chisel tungsten carbide inserts on the heel rows and inner rows. This design provides a fast drilling rate and added cutting structure durability in medium to medium hard for mations. The HSN rubber O-ring provides adequate sealing for bearing durability.
Tricone bit is connected with the drill stem and rotates along with it, and drive cones to pressed on the rock. Each cone rotates round the axis of its leg and three cones simultaneously revolve around the bit center. The tungsten carbide inserts on the cone shell cause the formation to spall under the weight on bit and the impact load of cone rotating, the debris will be discharged out to hole by compression air.
The medium formation TCI tricone bits features aggressive chisel tungsten carbide inserts on the heel rows and inner rows. This design provides a fast drilling rate and added cutting structure durability in medium to medium hard for mations. The HSN rubber O-ring provides adequate sealing for bearing durability.
Advantage:
1. Strictly select the material to ensure the reliable quality. Bad steel and tungsten carbide inserts won't be used.
2. Strictly act according to the ISO9001 standard, and control by full-scale inspection.
3. Sales and support people are highly trained in the latest rock drilling technology and can offer you expert advice on what products will best fit a specific end use application.
