12 ¼″ MX-18

UltraMAX FEATURES
• Single Energizer Seal & Bearing System (SEM) -
more robust design to provide consistency and
reliability in all applications.
• Anti-Mud Packing System (Excluder) - secondary
static seal eliminates detrimental effects of mud
packing on the seal.
• Grease and Lubrication System (Equalizer( - new
grease formulation better lubricates the seal faces.
Improved compensation system improves reliability.
• Clean Sweep Hydraulics - improved cleaning of
cutting structure for better ROP in bit balling
formations .
• BOSS Stabilization - improves bit stability.
• GT Cutting Structures with New Carbide Grades.
• Shirttail Motor Hardfacing - standard.
• Diamond Enhanced Modifications - optional.
