Contrary to traditional beliefs, BlackTrax bits feature a less aggressive gauge, designed to improve stability. BlackTrax bits take advantage of Engineered Cutter Technology. Each bit's cutter configuration is tailored for a specific application. Additional features like Balanced Hydraulics, streamlined blades and junk slots, and a tough Duraset gauge make BlackTrax bits the perfect choice for all of your steerable applications. Application Specific Cutter Technology - Cutters designed for specific applications are strategically positioned on the bit body to match downhole loads the bit is likely to encounter.
All cutters employ the Black Ice polished cutter feature.
Engineered Cutter Placement - From an examination of dulls, obvious certain areas of a bit undergo more wear than others. Some areas must withstand impact while other areas must be abrasion resistant. BlackTrax bits utilize Engineered Cutter Placement where Application Specific Cutters are strategically positioned on the bit body so that their design characteristics match-up well with the loads encountered downhole. Balanced Hydraulics - Balanced cuttings are achieved through like blades generating equal cuttings volume. Cuttings generation is then balanced to hydraulic flow and junk slot area Duraset Gauge - Duraset Gauge provides the highest abrasion resistance available.
