Conditions are often encountered where formations change repeatedly within a very short interval of drilling. Under such circumstances, select a bit
that cuts the hardest of the expected formations, and adjust drill rates as abrasive rock is encountered to protect the bit from excessive wear rates.

For additional details about bit selection as well as custom exploration bits, please contact your local sales representative.
