What Are PDC Products?
PDC (Polycrystalline Diamond Compact) cutters are industrial-grade tools made by sintering a layer of polycrystalline diamond (PCD) onto a tungsten carbide substrate under High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) conditions. This combination provides exceptional hardness, wear resistance, and impact toughness, making PDC cutters ideal for oil and gas drilling, geological exploration, and heavy-duty cutting applications.
Key Advantages of PDC Products
- Extreme Hardness & Wear Resistance: PDC cutters efficiently drill hard geological formations, concrete, asphalt, and abrasive materials.
- Impact & Thermal Stability: Withstand high load, high impact, and high temperatures generated during drilling.
- Long Service Life: Maintain sharp cutting edges, reducing tool replacement frequency and downtime.
- Precision Performance: Ensures fast and consistent penetration rates with minimal vibration or deviation.
