<p>A preform element includes a polycrystalline facing table (32) having a front face (35), a peripheral surface, and a rear surface bonded to the front surface of a tungsten carbide substrate (31). The front surface of the substrate has a flat central region (33) and an outer peripheral region (34) which is inclined away from the front face of the facing table as it extends outwardly. The outer peripheral region (34) is formed with a number of spaced semi-circular recesses (36) into which extend projections of diamond material formed on the rear surface of the facing table (32). The outer edge (37) of each recess lies on the periphery of the substrate and the curved inner edge is tangential to the central region (33) ofthe substrate. Smaller recesses (39, 40, 42, 43, 44) are formed in the bottom surfaces of the semi-circular recesses (36) and at other locations over the front surface of the substrate. <IMAGE></p> |
