Specialty Definition: DUCKBILL PICK

DomainDefinition

Mining

A duckbill-shaped coal-cutter pick that is forged by the roller type of machine from dies and is the type largely used today. The machine shaping of the pick ensures uniformity. It gives a constant clearance as the point wears down and is particularly suitable for fused-carbide tipping. (references)
