What Customers Are Saying
This diamond-coated drill bit performs well for drilling clean holes through ceramic, glass, and tile materials, especially when used with water to keep the bit cool. However, it can be challenging to start the hole and keep the bit steady, particularly on porcelain tiles. Users recommend starting the hole at an angle, gradually straightening the bit as it cuts, and using a low drill speed. The bit may wear down quickly, especially on thicker or harder materials, so it's best suited for light to moderate use.

From 5_SLASH_16-in Wet_SLASH_Dry Diamond Core Drill Bit for Stone Verified Purchaser
Product was dull and took a very long time to get through a standard tile. Waste of money on this bit.
Don’t bother with this tool
Would Not RecommendJunk. Bought this to drill holes in porcelain tile. Less than halfway thru the first hole the bit had bent enough to make it useless. Took a long time to drill as well. Got a Lenox diamond bit and it went thru the next 3 holes like it was wood. Get the brand name!
Does not bite into granite like others al
Would Not RecommendProduct will not bite into granite like others and is slightly out of round causing it to walk and damage product being attempted to make a hole
Dear Lowe’s Customer,

Worked !
Would RecommendHad to drill holes in tile to install towel rods , towel hook and medicine cabinets 10 holes in all. It did a good job it took some time you have to take your time and don’t rush it. I found out it cuts better if you keep spraying water on and in the hohe so as to not heat up the saw to much. I think it has a few more holes left in it’s life so for the fair price it’s well worth it. Also make sure you clean out the hole in the saw (bit) and it will go a little easy.
Highly recommend for glass tile
Would RecommendWorks as advertised! Used this drill bit to install a glass panel into our walk-in shower. We have glass tile and it worked with relative ease drilling 4 holes. I suggest watching some YouTube vids to familiarize yourself with the process as it takes a lot of patience when drilling through glass without cracking it.
