US Synthetic first began manufacturing diamond cutters for fixed cutter drill bits in 1983. Since then, we have developed this technology aggressively, and a number of significant US Synthetic innovations have made it possible to use fixed cutter bits in harder, more demanding formations. Thanks to these continuous advancements in design, materials, processing, manufacturing, and testing, US Synthetic leads the industry in fixed cutter diamond products—with some of the fastest, longest lasting, and best-made cutters in the world.
Nearly all of our fixed cutter inserts are designed and manufactured to meet specific project requirements. Inserts range in size from 5 mm to 25 mm in diameter and 3 mm to 25 mm in length. They can be manufactured in many different shapes—from basic cylindrical cutters to inserts with customized angles, diamond thickness, chamfers, and sizes. When we design and manufacture your diamond cutter insert, we’ll work closely with you to find the optimum combination of abrasion and impact resistance for your specific drilling application. This customized approach, combined with our meticulous attention to quality, make US Synthetic PDCs the ideal solution for almost any drilling application.
