Impregnated Bit

Tercel provides both matrix and steel body impregnated bits. The steel version can be fitted with a micro core feature. All these features are patented technologies from DDS.

Our impregnated design uses impreg blocks. This provides you with even diamond distribution all along the bit profile.

The matrix technology uses H2 furnace to lower the infiltration temperature in order to ensure higher diamond integrity.

On the steel body technology, the impreg blocks are brazed at 650 degC in the blades, much like a PDC bit.

Doing this avoids high temperature (1000+ degC) infiltration of a matrix bit. The diamond grains are kept intact in the blocks. In addition, a steel body bit can be repaired as per a PDC bit.

Using steel body technology, you can increase the diamond content in your bit. The steel being much more resilient and stronger than matrix, the blade height can be more important. Increase in diamond content can be as high as 100%.
