ABSTRACT:
Hard metal cutters have the attachment portion of their axial length which is cylindrical in cross section, mechanically secured by a transition fit within cylindrical sockets provided in a suitable steel body, such as, for example, a rock drill bit; the cylindrical sockets contain a local circumferential band of deformed and compressed metal axially spanning the innermost cylindrical boundary of the maximum hard metal diameter upon assembly. This eliminates detrimental tensile stresses due to assembly; and provides a region of high compressive stress to reduce the effective fatigue loads during drilling.
