<p>An improved tooth (10) for use in rotating diamond bits incorporating a generally triangular prismatic polycrystalline diamond element (14) is devised by integrally forming an oval shaped based about the tooth (10) or element (14) extending from the face (12) of the rotating bit, thereby providing a lateral reinforcing collar (20). The diamond element (14) is also reinforced by a tapered trailing support (18) having a leading surface continguous and substantially congruous with the trailing surface (25) of the diamond element (14). In one embodiment, a prepad (16) provides reinforcement or support for the leading surface (25) of the diamond element (14).</p> |
