Practical tips for best results
- Mark your drilling point with tape or a center punch to prevent wandering on smooth tile surfaces.
- Use a low-to-moderate drill speed and steady pressure; let the carbide tip do the work to minimize heat buildup.
- Keep the work surface cool with a light flow of water or a cooling lubricant to extend bit life and reduce chipping.
- Proceed gradually; for deep holes, clear debris periodically to preserve cutting efficiency and prevent clogging.
