6'' VMG-55DVHX2

This document provides specifications for the 6" VMG-55DVHX2 directional drilling bit. Key features include a directional cutting structure to withstand high sideloads, a metal face seal and bearing system for longer life up to 400°F, and updrill protection. The bit also features increased wear resistance on the heel and gauge with diamond compacts, and STL hardfacing on the shirttail and leg areas. Operating recommendations include a weight on bit of 15-40 klb, rotation speed of 80-250 rpm, and maximum torque of 7.0-9.0 klbf-ft.

6"VMG-55DVHX2

(152.4 mm)

 Directional Cutting Structure


Maximized ROP, fewer trips, and improved drilling economics with
this directional cutting structure engineered to withstand high
sideloads inherent to directional drilling; provides the proper
amount of lateral and axial aggressiveness needed for each
application.
 Metal Face Seal & Bearing System
Longer bit life in high-RPM, motor, and high-temperature drilling
applications, up to 400°F (204°C), with the patented VM metal-to-
metal sealing system.
 Updrill Protection (U)
Provides additional protection to the compensator and assists the
drilling operation when backreaming is required.
 Diamond Vanguard Heel & Gauge Enhancement (DVHX2)
Increased wear resistance with maximum heel and gauge
protection, 100% optimized diamond heel and 100% gauge
compacts.
 STL Hardfacing for Directional Applications
Increased bit life and reliability with robotic application of
patented, highly wear-resistant STL™ hardfacing that covers
entire shirttail and leg areas for protection from the potentially
damaging effects of hole-wall contact.
