Abstract:
A tool for use in a borehole to perform a milling, under reaming, or other cutting operation includes a tool body configured for rotation about its longitudinal axis, within the borehole, and a set of cutters, the set including two or more cutters which, at least in a deployed configuration, extend outwardly from the tool body and are fixedly coupled together whilst being pivotally coupled to the tool body substantially on said axis so that the cutters rotate with the tool body whilst being pivotable together relative to the tool body during cutting.
