Hobic Impregnated Coring Bits
Atlas Copco Exploration Products continues to set new standards in design and manufacture of diamond drill bits for the world's exploration industry.
As with Atlas Copco drills and In-hole-tools, the Company's Hobic bits are the choice of experienced drillers for consistently meeting and exceeding
expectations.
Hobic is a true "blue-collar" bit. We have incorporated the experiences and on-site requirements of the world's best drillers into the design and
development of the Hobic line. Combined with cutting edge metallurgical technology and our ongoing quest to take penetration rates higher, the
result is Hobic - for the most demanding core drilling conditions anywhere... today and into the future.
Hobic Surface Set and Impregnated Reaming Shells
Hobic reaming shells are manufactured to withstand difficult drilling conditions and provide long life. Surface set reaming shells in all
common DCDMA sizes are a stock item. Impregnated reaming shells and reaming shells in full hole profile are also available, but may require longer lead times.
Reaming shells are available in industry standard lengths of 15cm (6"), 25cm (10"), and 46cm (18 3/8"). A combination of polycrystalline diamonds
(PCD) and natural diamonds are utilized for most standard reaming shells and all heavy duty reaming shells.
Hobic Casing and Rod Shoes
Hobic casing and rod shoes are manufactured to handle a broad range of conditions, from unconsolidated overburden to broken, abrasive formations.
Impregnated standard and heavy duty casing shoes are stock items. Surface set casing shoes are available, but require longer lead times. Rod shoes are
available only in an impregnated design.
