T6-76 Core Lifter - Standard

A T6-76 Core Lifter is a component used in core drilling equipment, particularly within the context of conventional coring. This component plays a critical role in securely holding and extracting core samples from geological formations during drilling operations. 

Design and Function:

• The T6-76 Core Lifter is designed as a cylindrical or tube-shaped mechanism that is positioned within the core barrel assembly, typically near the bottom of the inner tube.

Secure Core Sample Holding:

• Its primary function is to securely hold the core sample during the drilling process. The core lifter prevents the core sample from dislodging or falling back into the borehole, ensuring its preservation.

Preventing Sample Contamination:

• The core lifter also acts as a protective barrier, preventing contamination of the core sample by drilling fluid, debris, or other materials. It helps maintain the integrity of the core sample.

Compatibility:

• The design and dimensions of the T6-76 Core Lifter are specific to T6-76 core barrels, ensuring compatibility and seamless integration with other components of the core barrel assembly.

Sample Extraction:

• When the drilling process is complete, the core lifter is used to extract the core sample from the geological formation. It is carefully lifted, bringing the core sample along with it.

Material and Durability:

• Core lifters are typically constructed from durable and corrosion-resistant materials, such as hardened steel, to withstand the harsh conditions of core drilling and maintain their functionality over multiple drilling operations.

Sample Preservation:

• The core lifter's design and secure holding mechanism are crucial for preserving the integrity of the core sample. By preventing sample loss or damage, it ensures that the collected core sample is suitable for analysis and research.

Safety and Efficiency:

• The core lifter enhances the safety and efficiency of core drilling operations by contributing to the reliable collection and preservation of core samples. It minimizes the risk of sample loss or contamination.
