Optimizes fluid flow across bit face - - Better placement of nozzles - - More control of fluid movement
Optimized Shank Length
Reduced bit length for directional control - - Reduces bit-to-bend distance - - Consistent make up torque

SelectCutter™ PDC Technology ▌ Abrasion Resistance The capability of a cutter to shear formation and minimize the loss of diamond Improvements in diamond abrasion resistance maintains the sharp cutting edge longer for a higher rate of penetration ▌ Impact Resistance The ability of a cutter to manage a dynamic force
Cutters stay sharper longer and once they begin to wear, they wear slower. This means that the bit will drill farther faster, and reduce the cost per foot drilled.
