Core Product Advantages
Superior Compressive Strength
Manufactured with optimized diamond-table bonding technology, the C1316 withstands extreme downhole pressure and maintains structural integrity during high-load drilling operations.
Excellent Impact Resistance
The advanced interface design between the diamond layer and carbide substrate significantly improves resistance to impact damage and cutter chipping, especially in heterogeneous formations.
Outstanding Wear Resistance
The ultra-hard polycrystalline diamond surface provides exceptional abrasion resistance, resulting in longer cutter life and reduced bit replacement frequency.
High Thermal Stability
Engineered to perform under elevated drilling temperatures, the cutter maintains cutting efficiency and structural stability during prolonged drilling operations..
Enhanced Drilling Efficiency
Sharp cutting edges and optimized diamond grain distribution enable faster penetration rates and smoother drilling performance.
Extended Service Life
The combination of wear resistance, impact toughness, and thermal protection significantly extends operational lifespan, lowering total drilling costs.
Precise Size Specifications
The C1316 PDC cutter features a standard diameter of 13 mm and a total height of 16 mm. Precision manufacturing ensures dimensional consistency, allowing seamless integration into various PDC drill bit designs. Custom dimensions and chamfer configurations are also available to meet specific drilling requirements.
Material and Core Technology
Manufactured using premium synthetic diamond powder, creating an ultra-hard cutting surface capable of maintaining sharpness in abrasive formations.
Produced under High Pressure High Temperature (HPHT) conditions to achieve a strong metallurgical bond between the diamond table and tungsten carbide substrate.
The proprietary interface structure effectively reduces residual stress, improving impact resistance, thermal stability, and overall durability.
Application Field
Oil & Gas Drilling
Suitable for shallow to medium-deep well operations on land. Works well in tight sandstone, interbedded strata and gravel-bearing formations. High temperature resistance avoids carbonization and delamination, reducing bit replacement and overall drilling cost.
Mining Drilling & Exploration
Ideal for mineral prospecting, tunnel drilling and mine water well projects. Perfect for high-abrasive hard rock such as granite and quartzite. Excellent impact resistance prevents edge chipping, serving longer life in fractured mining formations.
Geological Exploration & Sampling
High dimensional accuracy ensures stable drilling and regular borehole. Guarantees complete formation core sampling, fully meeting high-precision geological survey and resource exploration requirements.
Water Well & Infrastructure Engineering
Widely used in deep water wells, pile foundation drilling and construction projects. Efficient penetration in common rock layers, low wear and stable performance for long-time continuous site operation.
Universal Bit Matching
Compatible with mainstream PDC bits, core bits and drilling tools with good interchangeability. Custom sizes and chamfers are available to meet non-standard matching demands for different projects.
Customized Service
To meet diverse drilling requirements, we offer comprehensive OEM and ODM services:
- Custom cutter dimensions
- Customized chamfer designs
- Different diamond table thicknesses
- Enhanced wear-resistant grades
- Specialized impact-resistant formulations
- Laser marking and branding
- Tailored packaging solutions
Our engineering team can recommend the optimal cutter configuration based on your formation characteristics and drilling objectives.
