D Section Mill
Product No. H15072
Features/Benefits
Operates hydraulically for fast, efficient down-
hole milling
Knife design reduces long stringers and mills
casing in short chips for easy lift and removal by
the drilling fluid
All knives are used for initial cutout, reducing
cutout time and minimizing the chance of bent
or broken knives
Knives are dressed with inserts utilizing
METAL MUNCHER technology for faster
milling and increased life
