Why tricone drill bit are most widely used
Due to impact, crushing and shearing rock breaking when roller cone rotates, the contact area between cone and bottom hole is small, the specific pressure is high, the working torque is small, and the working blade has a large total length and can be suitable for rock of various kinds.
Tricone bits rely on the impact of the cone on the formation, crushing and sliding shear to crush the rock.
