Tricone bits Introduction TCI tricone bit is the most popular drilling bit in the world,it can be widely used for oil&gas ,water well drilling and geological exploration areas. The IADC from 417 to 837 can meet your difference formation drilling. Also you can tell us your drilling formation,we can offer professional suggestion the tricone bit IADC. East drilling tricone bits are designed and manufactured according to the API & ISO standard which characteristics are long life, high drilling efficiency and low operation cost. At present, we can produce bit sizes ranging from 2 7/8" to 26"and they can be applied to different formations from soft to very hard. Guidance of Tricone Bit Choice
