/
The best way to extract the best performance out of a drilling bit, or any tool for that matter, is to reduce the damage. As far as working with a PDC drill bit is concerned, reducing the PDC cutter damage can go a long way.
Read MoreSteel Body Vs. Matrix Body Drill Bits
/
As far as the metallurgical properties of the two materials is concerned, steel and matrix are complete opposites of one another. Tungsten carbide grains in matrix are metallurgically bonded to form a hard and brittle composite material which is a lot more resistant than steel and is preferred in high solid-content drilling mud.
