This type of core bit is widely used in geological exploration, mineral investigation, and water well drilling where consistent drilling performance and easy maintenance are required.

 

Product Overview

The Spiral Type Core Bit is a widely used drilling tool in geological and mineral exploration projects. Its helical blade design allows continuous and smooth cutting while efficiently transporting drilling cuttings out of the borehole. Compared with traditional flat-type bits, the spiral structure reduces drilling resistance and improves penetration stability, especially in soft to medium-hard rock formations.
This type of core bit is particularly suitable for projects where stable drilling, simple operation, and consistent core recovery are required. Thanks to its optimized geometry and reinforced cutting edges, the bit maintains reliable performance even in complex geological conditions.

Field Application Case

 

In a geological exploration project in Northwest China, drilling was carried out mainly in limestone and marl formations with partially weathered layers. Conventional core bits suffered from poor cuttings discharge and unstable penetration.

 

After switching to our Spiral Type Core Bit:

Cuttings were discharged smoothly

Drilling stability improved significantly

Core recovery increased by approximately 25–30%

Bit wear rate was noticeably reduced

The drilling team reported smoother operation and higher overall efficiency.

 

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

 

Q1: What formations are best suited for spiral core bits?

A: Soft to medium-hard formations such as limestone, shale, marl, and weathered rock.

Q2: Can this bit be used for water well drilling?

A: Yes, it is commonly used in water well and shallow geological drilling applications.

Q3: How does it differ from spiral ribbed core bits?

A: Spiral core bits focus on smooth cutting and simplicity, while spiral ribbed bits provide higher structural strength for harder formations.

Q4: Can you customize sizes and thread types?

A: Yes, customization is available based on core barrel size and project requirements.

Q5: What is the typical service life?

A: Service life depends on formation hardness, but it generally offers longer durability than standard flat-type core bits.
