Application Quantec PDC bits combine the very latest in HCC bit
technology: Best in Class cutter technology, superior stability and
hydraulic efficiency together with a design philosophy that is tailored to
your drilling objectives. Designs are customized to achieve continual
performance improvement in the toughest applications.
Quantec Force Cutters These cutters are the result of the very latest in
diamond manufacturing technology. The interface between the diamond
table and carbide substrate has been optimized for even greater
durability and thermal stability. These application specific cutters have
been field-proven as being 6 times more wear resistant than anything
that preceded them.
