1. Types of diamond core bits
You can choose between wet and dry core drill bits for your project. Wet core drill bits use water to cool the bit and reduce dust. This method works best for heavy-duty jobs, like drilling through reinforced concrete or deep holes. Water helps the bit last longer and keeps your workspace safer. Dry core drill bits do not need water. You use them in places where water could cause problems, such as finished rooms or near electrical wires. Dry drilling is clean and quick. You set up fast and avoid making a mess.
2. Size options
The size you choose depends on your project. Measure the diameter of the hole you need. Add a little extra space for a perfect fit. Check the depth you want to drill. Make sure your drill bits are long enough for the job. If you drill through hard materials, pick bits with higher RPM ratings.
3. Material
You should also look at the material you want to drill. Asphalt, concrete, and masonry need different types of core drill bits. Make sure your bits have standard threads so you do not need extra adapters.
