I went in originally for diamond head drill bits to cut glass. They carried diamond head drill bits but they were for everything but glass. I went for the carbide tip and it did the job but was a lot slower.

Drilling extra hard ceramic tile with a regular ceramic bit dulled in two holes but the Bosch drilled seven holes before becoming too dull to cut. Usual tile drill bits have thin shafts that allow heat to build up and wear out faster, the new heavy shaft bits stay cooler, lasting longer

Glass and Tile bits will last a long time with ceramic tiles, however porcelain is a completely different animal.Drilling in porcelain requires technique if you want your bit to last for more than one hole, because you can destroy this bit on your first hole drilled.Water, water, water. Don’t be shy. It makes a mess yes.Never be aggressive, bit blade can chip out more than you want. especially if you already created a uneven hole.(no longer round hole) Buy the set, not a single size; create a divot, with the size hole you want or one size up, just a concave is needed, then with a smaller bit than the hole you want, drill all the wall through, and now drill through with the diameter of the hole you want.Yes you’re wearing down 3 bits in a single process, but each bit will last longer.And you will get more holes drilled.

This job it was very easy to use and had a nice point that when you put it on a mark it would not move very good job at for tile

Seems more durable than the old style. I was drilling in ceramic vs. porcelain so I need to try porcelain since it’s harder but I did 8 holes in the ceramic for a shower door with no problem.

Bore through marble tile with ease. Keep the surface wet and clean the bit now and again. Take it slow and it worked great.

I was looking to drill into porcelin tile in my shower enclosure. I explained the situation to the homedepot associate and she steered me to this product which i purchased vs purchasing the ceramic bit I had set out to buy. Got it home and as much as I tried could not make a dent in the porcelin tile. Read the package and low and behold it said not to use for porcelin tile. Ended up using an old ceramc bit i had lying around.Waste of time and money.

I had to install a hand rail in a tiled shower. After finding the studs, this bit drilled right through with no chips or slipping on the glazed tiles. Recommend.
