– Produce off-center or irregularly shaped
holes.
Drilling masonry (see figure R)
For maximum performance, use high quality
carbide-tipped masonry drill bits when
drilling holes in brick, tile, concrete etc.
■ Maintain a speed and a pressure that allow
cutting without overheating the bit or tool.
Applying too much pressure will:
– Overheat the tool.
– Wear the bearings.
– Bend or burn bits.
– Produce off-center or irregular-shaped holes.
■ Apply light pressure and medium speed
for best results in brick. Apply additional
pressure for hard materials such as
concrete.
■ When drilling holes in tile, practice on a
scrap piece to determine the best speed
and pressure. To prevent the drill bit from
skidding/ sliding, first apply two pieces of
masking tape to create an "X" shape over
the intended drilling spot.
■ Begin drilling at a very low speed to prevent
the bit from slipping off the starting point.
