The T6-116 Reaming Shell is a specific type of reaming shell used in the drilling industry, particularly in diamond drilling applications. A reaming shell is an essential component of the drill string that is used to enlarge the diameter of a borehole during drilling operations.

The T6-116 Reaming Shell is designed to fit a T6-116 core barrel system, which is a common size in the industry. It is typically made of high-quality steel and features a cylindrical body with internal and external threads for easy connection to other drilling components.

The primary function of the T6-116 Reaming Shell is to stabilize the borehole and protect the core barrel during the drilling process. It is placed above the core bit and acts as a guide for subsequent drilling tools. As the core bit cuts into the formation, the reaming shell helps to ensure that the borehole remains in the correct alignment and prevents deviation or wall collapse.

The T6-116 Reaming Shell often incorporates strategically placed waterways or flushing holes to facilitate the circulation of drilling fluids and to remove cuttings from the borehole. This helps to maintain proper drilling efficiency and prevent clogging.

Reaming shells are available in various sizes and configurations to accommodate different drilling requirements and formations. The T6-116 Reaming Shell, specifically, is designed for applications where a borehole diameter of approximately 116 mm is desired.

T6-116 Core Barrel

A T6-116 core barrel typically comprises key components, including an outer tube, inner tube, and a core lifter. The core lifter is a crucial mechanism designed to securely hold and extract the core sample from the geological formation. The inner tube is used to collect the core sample, while the outer tube provides protection to the core sample during drilling and retrieval. T6-116 core barrels adhere to specific dimensions, with an inner tube diameter of approximately 4.57 inches (116.1 millimetres).

This standardized size allows T6-116 core barrels to be compatible with a variety of drilling equipment and systems. T6-116 core barrels are commonly used in drilling projects related to geological exploration, mineral sampling, geotechnical investigations, and other applications that require a moderately-sized core sample for analysis.
