Electroplated Drill Bits

Alpha® presents the Wet Diamond Electroplated Drill Bits, perfect for creating holes in tile and stone during pre - installation or post - installation. These bits perform excellently on various materials such as marble, granite, engineered stone, ceramic, porcelain, and glass tile and panels. They're compatible with a standard 3/8' or larger drill. Also, using the Drill bit Adapter, they can fit on water - fed polishers with 5/8' - 11 spindles. Available in sizes 3/16', 1/4', 5/16', 3/8', 1/2', 1 - 3/8', and 1 - 1/2', these bits are ideal for drilling holes for anchors for bathroom fixtures, faucets, and plumbing pipes. A must - have for every tile installer's toolbox.

Using these electroplated drill bits is easy. First, choose the right size bit for your project. For a standard drill, just insert the bit into the drill chuck. If you're using a water - fed polisher, use the adapter to fit the bit onto the 5/8' - 11 spindle. When drilling, keep a slow and steady pace to avoid cracking the tile or stone. Always use water to cool the bit and reduce dust. After use, clean the bit with water and a soft brush to remove any debris. Store the bits in a dry place to prevent rust. Don't use the bits on materials they're not designed for, as it can damage the bit and the material.
