  • Publication number: 20150300093
    Abstract: A downhole tool for enlarging a borehole, the tool including a body having a central axis, an uphole end, a downhole end, a bore extending from the uphole end, and an aperture extending radially from the bore to a radially outer surface of the body. Additionally, the tool includes a mandrel disposed in the bore, the mandrel having a first end, a second end, a radially outer surface, and a radially inner surface. The mandrel outer surface includes an inclined surface. Further, the tool includes a first blade disposed in the aperture. The first blade has a radially retracted position and a radially extended position configured to engage with a borehole sidewall to enlarge the borehole. The mandrel is configured to translate axially relative to the body to slide the inclined surface along the first blade to transition the first blade between the radially refracted and extended positions.
