💡 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) — Diamond Core Bits
1. What are diamond core bits used for?
Diamond core bits are used for drilling precise holes in concrete, brick, masonry, and stone for construction, plumbing, and electrical installations.
2. What is the difference between wet and dry core bits?
-
Wet core bits use water to cool and flush debris, ideal for reinforced concrete.
-
Dry core bits are used without water, best for masonry, brick, and block where water use is restricted.
3. Can I use diamond core bits on reinforced concrete?
Yes. Use Vortex wet core bits for reinforced or cured concrete, as they offer cooling and segment protection.
4. Which drill should I use with diamond core bits?
They are compatible with most hand-held core drills and rig-mounted coring machines. Always match the bit type and shank to your drill model.
5. How do I prevent core bit overheating?
Use adequate water flow (for wet bits) or let the bit cool between cuts (for dry bits). Overheating reduces bit life and drilling efficiency.
6. Can dry core bits be used on a regular drill?
No. They require a core drill with proper torque and RPM control for safe and efficient operation.
7. What size core bit do I need?
It depends on the hole diameter required for pipes, cables, or anchors. Sizes range from 1” to 14” in our collection.
8. How long does a diamond core bit last?
Longevity varies by material hardness, operator technique, and cooling. Vortex Diamond bits are designed for extended service life under professional use.
9. Are Vortex core bits suitable for dry drilling indoors?
Yes. Dry core bits are ideal for indoor drilling in brick or block walls where water control is important.
10. What safety measures should I follow?
Wear safety goggles, gloves, and hearing protection, secure the work surface, and ensure correct rotation and RPM settings.
