As we have already stated but will do so again, never use hammer action when core drilling. The drilling action needs to be as smooth as possible and the jerky action of the hammer can snap expensive diamond teeth very easily. Mark the Exact Drilling Spot Again, as we have also touched on above, there are several different types of core bit available and depending on the object you are drilling through and the size of hole you need to create will ultimately depend on what type of core drill your should use. Carbide Core Drill Bits There are many core drill sizes and generally each size is manufactured to represent the size of a commonly used pipe, cable or duct so that once the hole is drilled, the object in question passes through with ease. In the majority of domestic cases the largest hole you will need to drill will probably be around 6 inches in diameter through a standard cavity wall which will be around 300mm in depth. For anything up to this size a dry cutting diamond core bit will be more than up to the job.

With the above in mind, dry cutting diamond core bits are generally used when working indoors, whereas wet cutting bits are used externally. Medium Duty Core Drill: Wet & dry diamond core drill that can be used handheld, with a maximum drill bit diameter of 80mm, or in a drill stand with a maximum core bit diameter of 150mm.

With the drilling point clearly marked on the wall, next setup your core bit and drill. Screw the arbour into the end of the core bit until it’s pinch tight. Trying to drill more dense objects such as solid concrete will in most cases cause the bit to heat up, wearing it out even faster. Dry core bits are used without water, while wet core bits require water-cooling during operation. Dry bits are more convenient for DIY users but may not have the same drilling power as wet core bits. 7. How long does a diamond core bit last?
