This system uses self-adhesive pads for secure positioning and provides the necessary lubrication to extend the life of the drill bit. This unique kit cools the drilling surface reducing the risk of broken tiles.
Use this system when installing wall fixings through tiles in kitchens and bathrooms. For a wide range of fixtures such as shelves, towel rails or copper pipe.
How to use the diamond Core bit:
The diamond Core drill bit must be used with water at all times when drilling. The water serves as a coolant to prevent the diamonds from overheating. The maximum allowable temperature for a diamond Core bit is 500 degreeC. There is no pilot drill with the diamond Core bit. A low rpm rotary drill is required to be used with a diamond Core bit. It is possible to use a cordless drill, but in the lowest gear setting. No hammer action is used.
Tightly fasten the diamond Core bit in the drill's chuck. Keep the bit steady at a 45 angle with the starting point on the edge of the assigned area to be drilled whilst the bit is rotating. A notch will be made (this is normal). Gradually move the drill from 45 degree to 90 degree and continue drilling until finished.
Water can be applied by:
Spraying water on the surface using a wet sponge attaching a water feed device.
