Great for ceramic, not as effective with glass.

Works great. Use it to drill holes in glass and ceramic flower pots.

my friend bought it and was having problems to drill in the tile, so he said it was the tile so strong. because he allways buy Bosch never had problems with it. we finish the job.

These are ONLY for glass and standard ceramic. You need to know how to use these, or they will break immediately on first use. They require a water flood, not just a tiny spritz from a water bottle. Correct speed and pressure is important. It takes light pressure and a moderately high speed. I’ve drilled dozens of holes in ceramic pots and glass bottles, and had zero problems. The bits are as sharp as the day I bought them, and the holes come out clean and round.

Did not last long, got full very quickly after four holes.

Cost is high, but bits cut through tile very well.

The ones we used broke in the tile.

First, if your need is many holes in glass or ceramic, only diamond tipped bits will do that. Hard as carbide compounds and alloys are, they are not diamond. These Bosch carbide bits are intended for just a few uses before they are dull and need sharpening or replacement. They are NOT designed to drill 5 or more holes. I drilled (3) 1/2″ deep holes in a large glazed ceramic flower pot so water could drain; I barely made it through the third hole. For the cost of these bits, they work great for a small job. I was very careful to keep the bits wet and cool, even then it generated a lot of friction heat. A Drill Doctor will add considerable life to a bit by resharpening.Again, this is a great inexpensive set If your need is just a few holes in glass or ceramic, but only diamond tipped bits will do hole after hole.

Used it to drill out a piece of hardened steel that was broken off inside a roll pin. Cobalt wouldn’t even touch it. These bits drilled it right out.

Drill bits were used to open a hole in a ceramic vase. Worked well and did not cause the vase to shatter.

This product was fine as long as it was kept wet and not forcing it to cut. It reduces the life of the bit and it becomes dull, but once it cut through the surface, i was able to us a masonry bit to finish the job without cracking the tile.

Did what it was supposed to do!

It doesn’t function good with tiles

Drilled thru porcelain tile to concrete by added drops of water and slow short periods of drilling.Pilot hole first then to larger

1/8 tip broke off in the tile. First hole. And I was wetting the bit! Luckily, what I was hanging had multiple pilot hole spots so I just marked a new spot and filled the first hole with caulk. In figured I would have to replace that tile piece anyway so I tried the next size up. This time I drilled for a couple seconds, backed the bit out while still drilling ( very slowly drilling ) and blew out the hole. Cleaned the bit, Wet the bit, repeat. This was an extremely slow process for four holes to hang a shower curtain bar but it worked. Take your time. 1/8 or less deep at a time. Blow out hole. Clean bit. Wet bit. Repeat. Tip – I was inserting straight plugs for the screws. They wouldn’t go into the hole drilled as is even though that’s the size hole it called for. So I used the next size up bit to just barely taper the hole and the plugs tapped in easily.

The drill bit skated on the first hole I drilled into bathroom tile. On the second hole I started very slowly and it didn’t skate at all. Both holes were drilled easily without applying pressure and the holes were precise. Since I was drilling near the ceiling, I appreciated not needing any water to cool the drill bit.

These drill bits are excellent for ceramic tile. I used them to drill holes for tub and shower grab bars. They easily drilled nice clean holes in the tile with no effort

This project was the first time I have needed to drill through tile. My apprehension was eliminated with the usage of this drill bit set. Very satisfied with results.
Bryce Flatley (verified owner) –
We were drilling through very thick, tough porcelain tile. They worked as expected but we needed three more before the job was done.

The Bosch Glass and Tile Carbide Tipped Drill Bit Set has worked well for drilling the holes in a ceramic tiled wall to add anchors for hanging a wall hung mirror. The drill bits were trying to “walk” at first, but I remembered a trick to use a Drill Guide over the hole location and all went well.
