Description

Mexco TDXCEL Wax Filled (Hex Fit) Tile Drill Bits offer maximum performance and cost per cut when drilling the hardest of man-made and natural decorative materials. No water is required due to a special wax filled core that melts, lubricates and cools when drilling. Diamond tipped for a preofessional finish and hex fiting guarantees stability in the chuck of a high speed drill.

Ideal for drilling into porcelain and granite.

10 and 12mm bits available.

• Use on high speed drill (1800rpm).


• The tip of the drill will become HOT, please handle with care and wear suitable PPE.


• Only use for drilling the tile, not the material behind the tile. Use an appropriate drill but following penetration of the tile.


• Ensure all forms of percussion or hammer action and turned off on your drill.


• To start drilling, use a suction cup guide to enable an accurately positioned hole. Alternatively place the drill at 30 degrees angle, drill until the drill bit starts to penetrate the material. Once the hole has started to form bring the drill up into the upright position and continue.


• As the drill starts to work, the heat will cause the wax to melt, lubricating the cutting surface.


• Periodically remove the bit from the cut to allow cooling.


• For horizontal drilling minimal pressure is required. For vertical drilling the weight of the machine will give sufficient pressure.


• Ensure periodic removal of debris from the tip of the bit as a build-up of dust and debris will prevent the wax from lubricating the tip and shirten the lifetime of the drill bit considerably.
