When Cost Per Foot Matters!

Steel or Matrix Body Bits

Steel body bits offer maximum toughness and hence can be designed and manufactured with thin and tall blades leading to high Junk slot area. This results in larger cuttings evacuation minimizing potential balling issues and higher Rate of Penetration (ROP). Steel body bits also provide longer bit body life coupled with complex bit profiles and optimized hydraulics.

Matrix body bits are built with tungsten carbide material and offer high abrasion resistant and desirable as a bit material. It is resistant to abrasion and erosion and are perfectly suited for abrasive and challenging sections providing maximum durability.

Stage Hole Openers

Hole openers of various sizes, designed and manufactured per customer needs.

A pre-drilled Pilot hole can be opened to any Size or drill with a pilot bit along with the Stage Hole Opener (SHO)

Max Shear

Bits are built for very high ROP, have sloping blade tops to maximize Depth of Cut and hence penetration by the cutters. This body design has enabled us to maximize the performance in high ROP applications while delivering excellent durability

Xtreme Gauge

Built to endure! High RPM applications where the gauge damage is a concern, we have the Xtreme gauge option, which enhances gauge protection to the absolute limit giving you maximum durability

Roller Cones Bits With Sealed Roller Bearings

Exigent offers both Milled Tooth as well as Tungsten Carbide Insert bits in sealed roller bearing configuration for shallow and low WOB applications. With just a line contact and negligible friction on the high-strength steel rollers, the cones can rotate freely even under low WOB conditions. Silver plated engineered alloy thrust washer and spindle sleeve provides additional bearing surfaces to ensure the cone runs true to the bearing axis, which in turn reduces the radial loads experienced by the seal. The tight tolerances and smooth polished surface finish on the bearing surfaces of the cone and leg ensures the bit durability is maintained for longer run duration. A combination of good bearing and seal design along with temperature resistant grease ensures extended hours on the bearing and lowers the risk of premature pull out.

Roller Cones Bits With Sealed Journal Bearings

Exigent Journal bearing is designed to handle high WOB values while drilling hard formations for longer durations in challenging applications. The surface contact offered by the silver plated engineered alloy journal along with the thrust washer and the spindle sleeve, enable the bit to withstand high axial and radial loads experienced during the drilling operation. This bearing configuration is available on both Milled Tooth and Tungsten Carbide Insert bits to address varied applications across a wide range of UCS values. The silver acts as a solid lubricant after filling up the micro surface undulations, thereby enhancing the bearing life and the high viscosity temperature resistant grease enters all the nooks and crannies of the bearing in order to keep the frictional heat low and to prolong the bearing hours for longer sections.
