Hex Head Design
The hexagonal shaft fits all standard cordless and electric drill chucks — no angle grinder or 5/8"-11 adapter required. The hex design prevents the bit from spinning in the chuck, ensuring stable, controlled drilling throughout the hole. Ideal for installers and fabricators who need a drill-driver solution for field work.
Non-Core Drilling Advantage
Unlike standard core bits that leave a plug, these bits drill clean holes without leaving a core. This makes them especially useful for:
- Anchor holes for countertop clips and brackets
- Screw and hardware mounting holes
- Adhesive installations using polyester or epoxy
- Partial-depth holes where core removal is impractical
The result is a clean, chip-free hole without blowouts — critical when working with brittle materials such as porcelain and sintered stone.
Vacuum Brazed II Technology
Manufactured using Weha's patented Vacuum Brazed II technology — cuts faster and lasts longer than standard vacuum brazed bits. Fully exposed diamond bond delivers aggressive cutting action while maintaining durability across ultra-hard materials.
Compatible Materials
- Ceramic and porcelain tile
