Tile drill bit recommendations

[Aire]

I just use the Bosch multi cons. Get around 6 holes per bit and only cost a few quid each and I've gone through some very dense porcelain.

They’re great bits Craig and I use them for most things,. I have, however, come across porcelain that they just won’t touch. The worst I’ve had has been from grespania but a lot of the manufacturers seem to be going overboard on this recently. Really difficult to cut and drill, unnecessarily so as far as I can see.

To effectively solve this problem, three basic types of tools can be used: diamond crowns for porcelain stoneware and two types of diamond drills.

Regular drill bits can make a rough and ugly hole, and they may cause the tile to crack. Tile bits with ground tungsten carbide or diamond tips are the best for this purpose. They are both designed to drill into hard surfaces, and both of them puncture the tile with a cone-shaped hole.
