Many people have trouble drilling holes on porcelain tile, which is one of the hardest material on the market. With vacuum brazed diamond core bits from http://www.toolocity.com you can drill porcelain tile easily.

This video shows you how to use a regular high speed drill and brazed diamond core bits to drill full bodied porcelain tile. The diamond core bits can be found at http://www.toolocity.com/Brazed-Core-Bits-Set.aspx

These brazed diamond core bits can also be used to drill marble, ceramic and glass.

Our Video just demonstrates how we drill porcelain tile with our bit. We do not claim to be the best in this field. The Pros can always to better jobs. Your comments are welcome.

  • To keep it wet you can use a sponge to squeeze water while you are drilling, or use a spray bottle to keep spraying water.

  • Looks like metal shavings on the tile after the hole was made. Dunno what that says about the strength of the tooling steel ~rolls eyes~

  • these are not metal shavings but dusts/debris from porcelain.

  • Thank you for the tip. Also, I like the music - who is playing?

  • Thanks for tip. Almost forgot to splash some water

  • But will it blend?

  • what a dumb ass... scratching the tile like that makes me sick..don't give up your day job (if you have one) stupid!!

  • Actually, according to the directions of the diamond bit I just purchased, you must move the drill around 5-10 degrees when vertical, and never drill straight down. I'm assuming it has to do with keeping down the heat and allowing water to penetrate, as well as dispersing the stress on the diamond particles.

  • And if the tile is fixed on the wall?

  • lol you should also mention that you should NEVER wobble the drill like you di lol

  • lol they are from the sink that you hit after the bit went through

  • would like to see a video of this being done on a tiled wall (grouted) - any chance of that?
