9 5/8'' 244.5mm IADC737 Tricone Rock Drilling Tools Bit for Hard Rock

As a China supplier of hard rock drilling solutions, our IADC737 tricone bit is engineered for extreme formations like granite and basalt (UCS >250MPa). Featuring 10 rows of tungsten carbide insert (TCI) chisel teeth (12mm height) and a journal bearing system with DLC-coated thrust collars, it delivers 20% longer life in abrasive environments. The 25° cone angle and helical flutes optimize cuttings evacuation, while the 65mm journal diameter enhances load capacity for deep wells (>6000m). Certified to IADC 737 standards, it’s ideal for shale gas drilling, mining blast holes, and geothermal exploration.

Custom tooth geometry based on rock core analysis, API-compliant quality, and 72-hour global shipping for urgent projects.

Product Overview


Designed for extreme hard rock environments, the 9 5/8'' (244.5mm) IADC737 tricone bit features three steel-body cones with tungsten carbide inserts (TCI) arranged in 10 rows of chisel teeth (12mm height). The bit incorporates a journal bearing system with electroless nickel plating (ENP) and oil-lubricated seals, capable of withstanding WOB up to 350kN and temperatures up to 180°C. Its 16-blade cutter head and 25° cone angle optimize crushing and shearing in granite, basalt, and marble formations, certified to IADC 737 standards for premium performance. The helical flute design (38mm depth) ensures efficient cuttings removal even in low mud circulation scenarios.


Advantages


Hard Rock Specialization


TCI teeth (WC-10Co composition, 1300HV hardness) penetrate rocks with unconfined compressive strength (UCS) up to 300MPa, outperforming conventional milled teeth by 25% in gabbro

10mm-diameter tungsten carbide gauge buttons (arranged in 3 rows) reduce side wear by 25%, maintaining gauge integrity for 100+ hours in abrasive quartzite

Balanced cone rotation (±5% speed variance) minimizes eccentric loading, improving bit life by 20% compared to unbalanced designs


Bearing Technology


Thrust collar with diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating (surface roughness Ra ≤ 0.1μm) reduces friction coefficient to 0.05, 40% lower than standard ENP coatings

Pressure-equalizing membrane seals (polyurethane with fabric reinforcement) maintain grease integrity at 5000 PSI mud pressure, extending bearing life to 300+ hours

65mm journal diameter (10% larger than industry standard) increases load capacity by 15% for deep well applications (>6000m depth)


Drilling Performance


18° bit face inclination angle balances ROP and stability in highly fractured limestone, with field data showing 15% faster penetration than competitor models

Mud motor compatibility tested with Sperry-Sun and Geoservices systems, achieving 3°/10m build-up rate in hard sandstone

Helical flute pitch (200mm) optimized via discrete element method (DEM) simulation for 95% cuttings evacuation efficiency


Applications


Deep shale gas drilling in hard carbonate reservoirs (e.g., Middle East Khuff formation)

Mining blast hole drilling for iron ore extraction in basalt formations (UCS 200-280MPa)

Geotechnical exploration in schist and gneiss for hydroelectric dam foundations

Foundation piling for offshore wind farms in granite seabeds


Accessories


Bit Stabilizer: 3-wing roller stabilizer (244mm OD) with tungsten carbide hardfacing, reducing bit whirl amplitude by 60% as measured by downhole vibration sensors

Bearing Grease Kit: High-temperature grease (NLGI 2, dropping point 260°C) formulated for 180°C continuous operation, meeting API 10A grease specifications

Wear Gauge: Digital caliper (0.01mm precision) with Bluetooth connectivity, enabling real-time wear data transmission to drilling optimization software
