Step-Type Drag Bits

These Step-Type Drag Bits are a drill bit usually designed for use in soft formations such as sand, clay, or some soft rock. However, they will not work well in coarse gravel or hard rock formations. Uses include drilling water wells, mining, geothermal, environmental and exploration drilling. Whenever possible, they should be used to drill pilot holes because they produce cuttings that are easiest to log, the step type is more aggressive in soft and medium soft formation, and penetration rate is very fast
