Perfect for granite countertops

Cuts Well, Dulls Fast

I've used several different brands of these diamond hole saws. this has been the worst brand I've used so far. It took three of these Spyder bits to achieve the same amount of holes that one Kobalt bit previously did, with the last of the three dulling after just one hole. These are not durable and I would not recommend for professionals

Poor Packaging Quality

Website states 1.5" and hole saw package contents are 1/2" with the same product number. What gives? Has this happened to anyone else?

Absolute garbage!

Absolute piece of garbage! Barely drilled one hole through my tile. I only bought this as I didn’t have my Milwaukee drill bit on me. Don’t waste your money, buy the Milwaukee brand

if you think you need one, get two.

Worked as directed, was able to push out plug easily.

Disappointed

I don't know what's happening. I went through 3 of these and couldn't get 3 holes drilled. The tips just smoothed out in no time. Thought I just got a bad one. But 3 is a little excessive. I got at least 6 holes out of the last 2 Spyder bits.

Wore out after 3 holes in tile

Worked great at first, then all the diamond wore off and was useless.

Great cutting tool

Used on a brand new porcelain tile walk-in shower. Cut through tile like butter, no cracking or sparing of tile. Make sure you start the cut at a 45 degree angle as instructions stipulate and you'll be fine.

Use water for coolant and don’t gorse it

Used this to install a tub faucet trough porcelain tile, worked well.

Does its job!

I have been building a bottle wall on and off for years, drilling holes in the bottom of bottles to string them in rebar. This diamond Chipped bit, like its four other cousins, went through over 250 bottles like buttah! Do they eventually lose their cutting power? Of course, but it takes a long time! Would I buy it again? Yes!

Cuts good, hard to control

DO NOT DRILL STRAIGHT DOWN! This hole saw cuts well once you get it properly started. The blade likes to walk away from your intended cutting point! Having no center arbor makes it difficult to control until you have cut grooves. The process for using this hole saw demands that you cut grooves all the way around the hole by tilting the hole saw. A timely process! Once you have established a full circle you can cut straight through like most hole saws work. Requires extra time and attention to...

Diamond bit a washout

Product started off well but quickly dulled. Then it hung up and twisted like a pretzel.

It was good

Not all made the same

Used two to install grab bars in bath. First one did most of the holes for both bars. Switched to the second one for the last three holes and it wore out before the third hole was finished. Second bit was just poorly made. I believe they have quality control issues.

Good piece but check if depth matches your need

It did give a clean cut and was rather easy to work with, however the only downside is that the depth is not enough to cut all the way through my quartz countertop.

Junk

This diamond drill cutter did not last. It was kept cool and water was used. It did not survive its one use. Cheaper diamond whole cutters lasted much longer.

Hole

Works but took over 15 hours to drill a hole. Best to add water to hole so drill doesn’t over heat

It didn't hold up.

It did not hold up to the task of drilling a hole in my porcelain tile. I went through two of them, for one tiny hole.
