DIAMOND BORE BITS – WET USE

Diamond bore bits designed to cut circular holes into ceramic, porcelain, marble or granite tiles. Solely for wet use. Recommended speed: 1000-2000 rpm. Cylindrical stem or 1/2″ connector choice. Several diameter options available.

The expert’s advice

Position during cutting

Correct use involves drilling by making the power tool, and therefore the bore bit, follow a continuous helical oscillation. If constantly kept perpendicular to the surface to be drilled the bore bit will have a very short life !

Common errors and causes of breakage

The main cause of breakage is certainly overheating, to which many factors contribute, but among the most common ones is lack of or insufficient water flow, and maintaining a 90° angle of incidence with constant pressure applied during cutting. In either – or both of – such conditions the cutting crown heats up too much, diamonds detach and/or the metal is lead into forming cracks which may then evolve into complete breakages, the bore bit loses its cutting properties and ends its useful life.

Drillable materials

Our bore bits work well on natural stone materials such as marble and granite, on various types of stoneware and porcelain stoneware, as well as on increasingly hard technical ceramics such as Dekton, Lapitec, Laminam, Kerlite, Neolith.

Recommended rotation speed

Our wet bore bits should be driven at slow rotation speeds: from 1000 to maximum 2000 rpm. As the diameter increases, it is recommended to reduce the number of revolutions proportionally. It is therefore advisable to use power tools featuring adjustable rotation speeds.
