Over the years I have tried a number of different types of drill bits to use on: tile, glass, brick, concrete, etc. (anything but wood and metal) with varying degrees of success. There is no “magic bullet (bit)” but choosing the drill type that best matches the material is the best you can do. These drill bits from Milwaukee are for glass and tile. I used one (see photos) on 3/8” thick porcelain tile – a tough task for any bit. Go slow, with a slow speed and steady pressure, using a lubricant (I used oil) to keep the bit from overheating, and eventually you will make it to the other side. The resulting hole was extremely clean with no chipping. For its purpose, it’s a good tool.

I picked these bits for drilling holes in stained glass rather than ceramic tile. In short, they worked on the first hole or 2 but lost their edge and did not continue to work to drill glass but still would drill a clean hole in marble. I initially used a drill press at 700 rpm using the bits dry. I also tried a hand drill with glass submerged thinking that heating of the glass was the issue but still failed at about the same rate. Bottom line, if you need to drill a couple of holes in glass or plan to use on ceramic tile these will probably work but if you need to drill a significant number of holes in glass spend the extra money for a diamond core drill.

I have made 10 holes through the 1/4 stone type tiles before the drill bit was done. I was cooling it off every few seconds while drilling.

The bits did their job, quickly.

I got these tile bits for an upcoming bathroom tile installation project. I decided to practice on some items I had around. I was timid to pull the trigger, in case I damaged something, but, it was easy and precise. The drill bit didn’t slip off the drill spot, and made a clean hole. The bits are very robust carbide material, and they should last a long time.

Just what I was looking for it did the job.

Very durable and quick

The bits drill consistent holes time and time again but do overheat easily. You have to spray them with water often.

This is my review of the Milwaukee 48-20-8988 four piece glass and tile bit set. I just compleated installing a tile shower enclosure and had to install some accessories. I decided to try out these bits. I was pleased with the results. The tile has an irregular surface and the drill bit did not wander from the spot I needed to drill. It did require a bit of force to drill the hole. And a slow drill speed, I would recommend these bits.

Best cutting ability I’ve seen in years

Takes forever to cut through tile, but it did the job without cracking the tile.

These were more heat resistant and didn’t burn up. But I kept a cup of water to cool them and rotated from small to large as the hole depth progressed. Ceramic tile is very hard and takes some patience

Needed a bit to trim and drill ceramic tile around electrical receptacles on our backsplash. These worked great…like cutting through butter.

I used these to drill holes through Daltile 3×12 subway tile. I first put tape over the tiles to stop the bit from slipping, then drilled the marked holes. I started slowly and pulled the trigger in short bursts. The bits performed very well. There was no chipping of any kind, and the holes were circular. I can recommend these as long as you don’t stress them or the tile. It’s good to practice on a tile you don’t care about.

Not as durable as a thought.
