8 1/2'' MX-30DXDH

(215.9 mm)
Single Energizer Seal & Bearing System (SEM)UltraMax utilizes a
patented single energizer metal sealing system (SEM) with a more robust
design to provide consistency and reliability in high speed drilling and
other demanding applications.
Grease & Lubrication System (Equalizer) New grease formulation
better lubricates the seal faces. Improved compensation system increases
reliability.
Anti-Mud Packing System (Excluder) A secondary static seal
eliminates the detrimental effects of mud packing, creating a seal
between the mud and the seal package. Also working against the effects
of mud packing are the Mud Wiper and the Cone Backface Groove,
which work in tandem to wipe away packed-in mud.
Clean Sweep Hydraulics Nozzles are positioned closer to the cones with
their fluid streams directed toward areas where bit balling occurs. The
Clean Sweep high velocity core strikes heel and adjacent heel teeth and
sweeps the critical bit offset space on the backside of the cutter.
Boss Stabilization With six-point contact with the borehole wall, Boss
bits are cushioned against vibrating forces, protecting the cutting
structure from damaging blows.
