Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1577488A1] A borehole tool, comprises: a tool body; a series of arms connected to the tool body and moveable radially relative thereto; and a series of pads mounted on the arms so as to be pivotable about a radial axis relative to the tool body. By allowing pivoting of the pads about a radial axis, elongate pads can be arranged to provide different circumferential coverage according to the orientation with respect to the longitudinal axis of the borehole.
