The buttons are typically made from tungsten carbide or similar hard materials, ensuring durability and strength to withstand tough rock formations. Buttons come in various shapes like spherical, conical, or chisel, each suited for different rock types and drilling conditions to improve penetration and efficiency. Their robust design minimizes wear and tear, maintaining sharpness and performance over prolonged use in challenging environments. These buttons are integrated into roller cone bits, which rotate to crush or break rock, making them essential for oil, gas, and mining industry applications.
