HEROTM The HEROTM series is well known for its outstanding penetration/lifespan ratio. Each core bit comprising the series goes through a rigorous selection process and addresses specific performance requirements. Available with a 13 mm standard diamond impregnation height, HEROTM core bits are manufactured one by one with great care, using a new unitary furnacing process which regularizes the consistency of the tools. HEROTM bits are available in all standard configurations and can also be ordered in Vulcan, with a 16 mm diamond impregnation height.
HEROTM 3
Excellent abrasion resistance
Great for ground rated between 3.5 and 5.5 on Moh’s hardness scale
Ideal for sandstone, shale and limestone
HEROTM 7
Offers the best penetration/lifespan ration in medium hardness ground
Ideal for quartz, all types of granite or equivalent hardness rocks.
VULCAN The Vulcan 16mm diamond drilling bit is the new industry standard. Designed by Fordia for all types of ground, this exclusive and proprietary design is the first true 16mm bit and reduces the number of pull-outs by 33% in comparison to the 12mm bit.
The innovative bridge technology offers unparalleled advantages:
Same material as the matrix for consistent wear
Unrestricted drilling fluid circulation
Unique system of highest torque equal distribution on all segments
All the advantages of Fordia’s diamond drilling bits
Thermally stable polycrystalline diamonds [TSP] for heavy duty critical gauge protection
Improved life-span of bits and reaming shells
Titanium coated diamonds
Cutting ability of diamonds preserved throughout the bit furnacing process
SHARK The high quality diamond core bits in the SHARK series provide high performance in all types of formations.
The high performance SHARK series of impregnated diamond core bits are designed to meet today's challenging drilling conditions. SHARK’s quality impregnated matrices suit all possible formations, from soft to very hard, whether abrasive or silicified. Using the latest technology and equipment, we strive to give you core bits that penetrate faster and have a longer bit life.
Fast penetration
Longer bit life
For all types of formations: soft, hard, abrasive or silicified
SHARK ADVANCED The new Shark Advanced core bits take the original and trusted Shark series one step further. The greater diamond impregnation of 12mm offers enhanced performance and the specific composition is well adapted to demanding drilling conditions and today's powerful drills.
GEO HAWK Available in four different matrices to fit any type of ground, the GEO HAWK series is specifically designed for geotechnical applications. Offering performance and reliability at a great cost, these core bits are available in most standard sizes, metric or imperial.
Brown Geo Hawk Very hard bit that is perfect for grounds that comprise mostly soft and very abrasive types of rock, such as calcite, limestone, sandstone or shale.
Red Geo Hawk Medium hard and abrasive grounds, such as serpentine, dolomite, granite or schist, require this bit for efficient drilling.
Orange Geo Hawk Perfect for hard grounds, this medium hardness core bit drills through granite, gabbro, diorite or hematite rock compositions.
Yellow Geo Hawk Meant to drill through very hard grounds, this soft bit is ideal for rock formations that comprise high concentrations of gneiss, quartz, pegmatite, andesite or chert.
Thin Wall Diamond Core Bits We offer a wide variety of thin wall diamond core bits that can do most wet cut drilling or dry cut drilling jobs. Our thin wall bits are generally 15 inches long, and can be used for drilling reinforced concrete, general concrete, asphalt, or sandstone.
