Crush & Shear™ Hybrid Drill Bits

Two cutting structures, one bit, zero compromises

Crush & Shear Hybrid Drill Bits reimagine the bit by placing roller cones in the bit’s center for efficient formation crushing and move the cutters to the shoulder for maximal rock shearing.

Crush & Shear technology helps operators drill faster with better control in hard-rock, vibration-prone wells and traditional hybrid or roller cone curve applications.

Hybrid drill bit technology reimagined

Crush & Shear hybrid bits place polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) elements alongside rolling elements, which optimize the cutting mechanism for each region of the bit. This means higher rates of penetration, improved lateral stability, and minimal torque fluctuations.

Benefits

Ability to withstand high weight on bit while reducing torque fluctuations resulting in improved tool face control and smoother drilling
Lateral stability that reduces overall vibrations, increases drilling efficiency, and extends the life of PDC elements
