Tork Craft Diamond Core Bit — 19 mm for Tiles
This 19 mm diameter diamond core bit from Tork Craft is built for precision hole-drilling through tough surfaces including ceramic tiles, grade-5 porcelain, marble, granite and slate. Featuring high-quality diamond segments that cut faster and cleaner than conventional bits, this core bit is a top-choice for plumbing, electrical, drainage or decorative penetrations in tiling and stone work. Usage with water / coolant is essential to maximise performance and lifespan.
The diamond core bit is used to drill holes in:
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Grade 5 porcelain (hardest)
- Granite
- Glass
- Slate
Extra Information
- Designed specifically for tile and stone — ceramic, porcelain (including grade 5), marble, slate and granite.
- Mandatory use of water (wet drilling) or coolant to prevent overheating of the diamond segments. No hammer or impact mode — rotary only.
- When starting a hole, begin at 45° angle on edge and then ease to vertical for best penetration and minimal damage.
- Check your drill’s rotations per minute (RPM) for 40 mm diameter bits to ensure safe, optimal cutting.
An indication of the correct spindle speed:
| DIAMOND CORE BIT DIAMETER | SPINDLE SPEED |
| Ø5.0mm | 800 rpm |
| Ø6.0mm | 600 rpm |
| Ø7.0mm | 500 rpm |
| Ø8.0mm | 500 rpm |
| Ø10.0mm | 400 rpm |
| More than Ø10.0mm (>10.0mm) | less than 400 rpm |
Pro Tip
- Use a small amount of water or a wet sponge at the drill point to keep the bit cool and reduce tile glazing blow-out. Start at a low rpm and increase only when stable.
Features
- 19 mm diameter — ideal for larger through-holes in tile, stone or masonry.
- Premium diamond segment cutting edge — built to handle hard materials like marble, granite and porcelain.
- Lightweight body for easier handling.
- Fits standard drill chucks or compatible with tile/stone drilling rigs (check arbor thread).
- Water-coolable design recommended to prevent overheating and extend diamond life.
Benefits
- Efficient cutting: Diamond segments allow faster penetration through hard surfaces, saving time.
- Smoother holes: Produces clean edge holes in tile/stone, reducing chipping and rework.
- Versatile applications: From commissioning of plumbing and drainage in tiled walls to decorative stone installations, this bit handles them reliably.
- Durable build: The use of diamond-cutting edge and careful construction extends tool lifespan and lowers replacement cost.
- Better control: Designed for tile/stone applications to give you stability and precision in demanding conditions.
Safety
- Wear eye, ear and dust protection when drilling tile or stone surfaces.
- Secure the workpiece and ensure the drill is held firmly—rotating cores can catch and spin the tile if unsecured.
- Operate in rotary (non-hammer) mode only; hammer mode will damage the bit and the surface.
- Constantly supply water or coolant when drilling to prevent overheating of diamond segments and avoid failure.
- Inspect the diamond segments before and after use; if segments are chipped or missing, replace the bit to avoid unsafe operation.
