Why it works
Why choose this drill bit
No water needed
The wax-filled core lubricates and cools the diamond tip, so you can drill dry on site.
Secure Hex Fit
The Hex Fit shank locates securely in the chuck of a high-speed corded drill, reducing slip at speed.
Clean, chip-free holes
The diamond-tipped edge cuts smoothly through porcelain, ceramic and stone without chipping the surface.
Six sizes to choose
5.5mm to 12mm individually, plus a 5.5mm-8mm multipack for jobs needing more than one size.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need water to use these drill bits?
Do I need water to use these drill bits?
No. The wax-filled core melts slightly as you drill, cooling and lubricating the diamond tip, so there's no need to set up a water feed.
What sizes are available?
What sizes are available?
Six individual sizes - 5.5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 10mm and 12mm - plus a multipack covering 5.5mm, 6mm, 7mm and 8mm.
What drill do I need to use these bits?
What drill do I need to use these bits?
A high-speed corded drill with a hex chuck. The Hex Fit shank is designed for corded drills rather than cordless combi drills or angle grinders.
What materials can I drill?
What materials can I drill?
Porcelain, ceramic tiles and stone tiles, including stone worktops - hard, decorative surfaces where a standard masonry bit would chip or crack the glaze.
Will the diamond tip wear out?
Will the diamond tip wear out?
Yes, the diamond coating is a wear part like any diamond drill bit, and it will wear down gradually with use against hard tile and stone.
Is the multipack better value than buying sizes individually?
Is the multipack better value than buying sizes individually?
The multipack covers the four most commonly used sizes - 5.5mm, 6mm, 7mm and 8mm - in one purchase, which suits fitters who need a range of hole sizes on the same job.
Can I use this for a one-off DIY job?
Can I use this for a one-off DIY job?
Yes. The bits are straightforward for a confident DIY user drilling a fixing hole in bathroom or kitchen tiles, as well as for tile installers.
