White Rhino Reaming Shells

The reaming shell is an integral part of a diamond drilling system and acts as a coupling between the core bit and the outer barrel. It reams the hole to the proper size, and stabilizes the bottom of the drill string.

Fordia White Rhino and Black Rhino reaming shells are made with high-quality, synthetic and natural diamonds, embedded in a highly resistant matrix. The friction-resistant tungsten carbide inserts found on the leading edges of the ring provide additional protection and increased lifespan.

White Rhino - 6 inch

6 inch White Rhino (15 cm) reaming shell features one diamond ring, which is standard and effective in the majority of competent bore holes. It is used for every kind of rock hardness or ground condition and is the minimum reamer requirement to provide minimum stabilization.

Improving Penetrations Rates

Mineral Exploration

Improving your rate of penetration will have a direct impact on profitability as it will increase productivity and lead to recuperating more core. How to achieve better penetration is a challenge for many drillers but there are several methods that will help.

Ground Abrasiveness

Mineral Exploration

Abrasiveness is a ground condition that can cause headaches among many drillers. It can be difficult to drill through when present in any hardness of ground. Abrasive ground and rock can wear down drill bits quickly and in the case of hard abrasive ground, iron ore poses a particular problem and is often referred to as a bit cemetery.

Reducing Water Consumption

Mineral Exploration

Are you struggling to find ways to reduce your water consumption? Water shortages, emphasis on environmentally safe practices, government restrictions and regulations for drilling and mining companies – all combine to increase pressure on companies to find ways to reduce and recycle the water they use.

Extending Bit Life

Mineral Exploration

Getting the longest life possible for your core matrix is a key consideration if you want to run a productive and profitable drilling operation. Changing a drill bit takes time especially the farther down the hole it is, and the time spent replacing a bit is not productive.
