Advantages of Steel Based PDC Drill Bits
/
PDC drill bits are typically available in two styles – matrix-based and steel-based. As far as steel’s metallurgical properties are concerned, it can withstand high impact loads but needs protective features to keep it from abrasion and corrosion. Steel based PDC drill bits are manufactured by machining the steel bars per design.
