Elevate your drilling experience with our Electroplated Diamond Core Drill Bits, meticulously crafted for precision and durability. Designed for use on glass, ceramic, porcelain, tile, and stone, these drill bits feature diamond coating on one end of a metal base, ensuring efficient and accurate hole-making.Electroplated Diamond core Drill Bits for Glass, Ceramic, Porcelain, Tile & Stone are made by diamond coating one end of a metal base. Use these diamond core drill bits to make holes in a variety of hard to cut materials. Unlike conventional twist drills, diamond drills work by gently grinding (or sanding) the material you are Drilling. This process takes time, you have to be patient. A core drill will cut more quickly than a solid drill since it is only cutting out a small circle of material. The larger size core drill bits will also give you a useable core, but the core from the smaller drill bits are usually destroyed during the Drilling process. These tools work on all types of stone,glass,tile,composites,plastics,resins,porcelain,eggs,and much more. The smaller sizes can be used in a hand drill or rotary tool (like a Dremel or Foredom), but the larger sizes should be used in a drill press.
Performance
Electroplated Diamond Core Drills offer several performance benefits due to their unique design and the use of electroplating technology.Key performance characteristics:
-
Fast and Precise Drilling: Electroplated diamond core drills are known for their fast and efficient drilling capabilities. The diamond particles on the surface of the drill bit provide exceptional cutting speed, allowing for quick hole formation.
-
Clean and Smooth Holes: These core drills produce clean and smooth holes with minimal chipping or fracturing of the material being drilled. This is particularly important when working with delicate or brittle materials like glass, ceramics, or certain stones.
-
Longevity: Electroplated diamond core drills are durable and have a longer lifespan compared to some other types of core drills. The electroplated diamond layer is securely bonded to the drill bit's surface, ensuring a consistent cutting performance over time.
-
Versatility: These core drills are versatile and suitable for various materials, including glass, ceramics, porcelain, tiles, marble, granite, and other hard or brittle substances. They are commonly used in construction, renovation, and DIY projects.
-
Minimal Heat Generation: Electroplated diamond core drills generate less heat during drilling compared to some other types of drills. This is important for preventing damage to the material being drilled and maintaining the integrity of the workpiece.
-
Reduced Dust and Debris: The precise cutting action of electroplated diamond core drills results in less dust and debris during drilling, improving the working environment and reducing the need for extensive cleanup.
-
Ease of Use: These core drills are easy to use and suitable for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. They can be used with standard drill machines and are available in various sizes to accommodate different hole diameters.
It's important to note that the performance of an electroplated diamond core drill can also depend on factors such as the drill's quality, the hardness and thickness of the material being drilled, and the operator's skill. Proper lubrication and cooling are often recommended to enhance the drill's performance and extend its life.

Electroplated diamond core drills come in a wide range of sizes to accommodate various drilling needs. Here's a size list that includes common diameters from 3mm to 100mm.These sizes cover a wide range of drilling applications, from small precision holes to larger openings for various industries and purposes. It's important to choose the appropriate size based on your specific drilling requirements and the material you are working with.
The order code for Electroplated Diamond Core Drills typically consists of the prefix "EDCD+" followed by the diameter of the drill bit you require. Here's how it looks:
Example:
-
EDCD+3mm (for a 3mm diameter electroplated diamond core drill)
-
EDCD+10mm (for a 10mm diameter electroplated diamond core drill)
-
EDCD+25mm (for a 25mm diameter electroplated diamond core drill)
You can simply replace "Diameter" with the specific diameter you need when placing an order. This format helps ensure that you receive the correct size of core drill for your application.
