摘要 |
A cutting element for earth-boring drill bits comprising a generally domed cutting surface comprising a superabrasive material, formed by a high-pressure high-temperature sintering method known in the art, integrally bonded to a cylindrical substrate having a truncated conical interfacial surface, consisting of a top surface and a circumferential shoulder joined by tapered sidewalls, and the base of the substrate being adapted for insertion into an earth-boring tool. The top surface of the substrate may form a circle, a square, or a polygon, and the sidewalls may be smooth or form one or more polygons.
