Diamond Tile Drill Bits

Wall and floor tiles provide a very attractive and practical solution in domestic and commercial interiors. Tiles can feature in highly trafficked areas such as entrance halls and lobbies, they are also a popular choice in wet areas such as showers, bathrooms and kitchens which are subject to vigorous cleaning with disinfectants and detergents.

In order to resist cracking and discoloration, tiles are more commonly being manufactured from very hard ceramics, vitrified porcelains and quartz which helps the tiles to retain their beauty yet remain durable. These materials solve the problem of wear and tear but they cause another when it comes to drilling holes for pipes and attaching fixtures and fittings. Carbide tipped drill bits are capable of drilling soft ceramic tiles using a plain rotary action but they are not up to the task on porcelain, quartz and natural materials such as marble and granite with heat causing the carbide tip to melt. Very hard masonry can be drilled when using carbide but it also requires a chiselling action from a hammer mechanism that would crack a very hard tile. The only alternative is to resort to the hardest substance known to man – diamond.

Protrade have a range of industrial quality diamond tile drill bits which require no hammer action and are specifically designed to be used without water. Very hard surfaces usually require the cutting edge to be flooded with water but in a fully finished bathroom or kitchen this slurry can discolour fresh grout which clients find unacceptable.

Maxitek diamond tile drill bits quickly drill through the hardest tiles so pipes can pass through and fittings for bathrooms and kitchens can be hung without the risk of tile breakages saving time, money and reputation. Maxitek diamond tile drill bits are only available from Protrade. Order your Diamond tile bits for next day delivery or call into any of our Protrade depots situated in Derby, Burton Upon Trent, Mansfield, Nottingham, and Chesterfield.
