How long do Mining Drill Bits last?

If the bit is not reground, the driller will often assume that he can continue with the same bit until the required depth is reached.

In fact, although the bit will actually last for 15 hours (with the same revs and blows) it will drill only 350 m in that time due to the decrease in penetration rate.

What can damage Mining Drill Bits?

In mining, metallurgical, and petroleum industries, drill bits are subjected to highly abrasive rock and high-velocity of fluids that cause severe wear, erosion, and corrosion in service.
