  BORDO 4 Cutter Glass and Tile Drill Set

  • 4-10mm 5 Pce 4 Cutter Glass and Tile Drill Set
  • Tungsten Carbide 4 Cutter Glass and Tile Drill Set
  • Precision diamond ground, double chamfered spear point tungsten carbide for fast cutting and extreme tool life (when used at slow to medium speeds).
  • Fast starting with reduced bit wander.
  • Suitable for use in: glazed and un-glazed ceramic tiles, glazed porcelain tiles, through-body porcelain tiles, plate (float) glass and annealed glass.
  • Not suitable for use with toughened or laminated safety glass.
  • Use a slow speed with steady but gentle pressure.
  • Reduce the pressure at break through.
  • For increased bit life use a cutting fluid/lubricant such as water or turpentine to reduce heat.
  • When drilling multiple holes in ceramic tiles, or when drilling vitrified porcelain, we recommend using either Bordo ceramic tile drills, the Bordo mist drill product range or Brilliant Diamond core drills.
  • Tungsten Carbide (commonly referred to as Carbide) is a chemical compound containing equal parts of tungsten and carbon atoms.
  • Carbide is three times stiffer than steel and is much denser than either steel or titanium.
  • Carbide has a very high abrasion resistance and can also withstand higher temperatures than standard HSS.
  • Carbide tools are often used for machining hard materials such as ceramics and stainless steel, as well as in situations where other tools would wear away, such as high volume production runs.
  • Because carbide tools maintain a sharp cutting edge better than other tools, they generally produce a better finish on parts, and their temperature resistance allows faster machining.
  • Whilst tungsten carbide is extremely hard it is also brittle so it is important to avoid bit “chattering” as this is the most common cause of tool failure.

  Ceramic Tile

  BORDO TCT Ceramic Tile Drill Set

  • 5-8mm 5 Pce TCT Ceramic Tile Drill Set
  • Extreme Performance Multi-Facet Tungsten Carbide Tipped Ceramic Tile Drill.
  • These Rotary Only ceramic tile drills provide outstanding performance and extended tool life in hard ceramic materials.
  • Unique cutting edge geometry in conjunction with high temperature brazing to ensure reliable and accurate drilling in multiple hole applications.
  • Use of water cooling will extend bit life.
  • Although these drill bits are not recommended for drilling vitrified porcelain, their superior multi-facet tungsten carbide tip enables them to drill most materials of this type, albeit with a reduced tool life.
  • These ceramic tile drills can also be used to successfully drill in brick, concrete and other masonry materials.

  Bit Sets

  BORDO IMPACT Hex Shank HSS Twist Drill Set

  • 1/4″ hex shank facilitates fast tool loading in cordless impact drivers and quick change adaptors.
  • One piece solid core design is significantly more durable than the conventional two piece design that utilises a hex sleeve on a standard round drill bit.
  • 135° split point delivers a precision start and prevents bit wander for fast, accurate holes.
  • Premium quality M2 HSS ensures extreme performance and long bit life.
  • Bordo Impact Bits are designed and manufactured for optimum performance in modern impact drivers.
  • Not only do they offer significantly increased bit life in impact applications but they also offer exceptional performance in standard driving usage.
  • The impact driver action places high peak torque demands on both insert and power bits.
  • Our range features a uniquely engineered torsion zone with multi-stage hardening and tempering to dissipate damaging peak loads.

  Countersink

  BORDO IMPACT Hex Shank Countersinks

  • Specifically engineered for use in impact drivers these bits are also fully compatible with conventional rotary drills.
  • 1/4″ hex shank facilitates fast tool loading in cordless impact drivers and quick change adaptors.
  • For countersinking and deburring in a wide range of materials including ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
  • The three fluted countersink is self centering with wide flutes and is used to provide a heavy chamfer in the entrance to a drilled hole.
  • This may be required to allow the correct seating for a countersunk head screw or to provide the lead in for a second machining operation such as tapping.
  • Use on medium to hard materials.
  • Resharpenable.
  • Manufactured from premium quality high speed steel for long service life.
