ABSTRACT:
A cutting element adapted to be used in a rotary drill bit is made by positioning in an appropriately shaped die cavity a quantity of a mixture of tungsten carbide and 4 to 11 percent cobalt in the shape of a crown for defining an outer surface for the tip portion of the cutting element using a pressure of less than about 600 pounds per square inch; positioning in the cavity a quantity of a mixture of tungsten carbide and 12 to 17 percent cobalt sufficient to form almost all of a base portion and at least an inner part of the tip portion for the cutting element; pressing the two quantities of the mixtures together and into the die at pressures in the range of about 10 to 15 tons per square inch; and sintering the pressed insert to form the cutting element.
