What Customers Are Saying

The drill bit performs well for some tile types like travertine and marble, but struggles with harder tiles like porcelain. Its durability is inconsistent, with some users reporting it lasting through multiple holes and others finding it dulling or breaking after just a few uses. Proper tool selection and drilling technique are important, as using a hammer drill and going slowly and steadily seems to yield the best results.

For tile use Bosch NS300 (1/4") or NS200 (3/16")

Would Recommend

I purchased the 3/16" Bosch NS200 from Lowes, product says it's for Natural Stone, Granite, Ceramic, and Slate. I had to drill two holes through tile which I assume is ceramic and not porcelain, but it's old tile and I'm not exactly sure. The bit worked, VERY VERY slowly. Maybe took over 30 minutes or more, but did eventually get though the 1/4" thick or less tile.

Quick and easy bit

Got this to use to drill holes in the bathroom wall tiles so I could install some handrails and a few accessories for the tub. Did the job with no issues. Definitely had no issues with subway tiles no chipping or cracking. Used it for about 12 holes before I started to notice any slowing down. Setting the tiles and run some water on it while drilling will drastically increase it’s life especially with thicker tiles.

7 holes, porcelain tile, no issues

Would Recommend

Followed instructions and it worked great- taped area, marked spot, with light taps using a hammer- created a small divet so the bit didnt walk. By the seventh hole it was cutting slower, but worked well and still expect a number of uses left in it.

It can handle more heat.

Would Recommend

It can handle more heat than an ordinary masonry bit but is still very slow on brick.
