Glass Drills
Glass drill bits are specialized tools designed for drilling into glass and other fragile materials like ceramics and tiles, ensuring clean, precise holes without cracking or shattering. Typically featuring a pointed tip resembling a spear point, these bits minimize the risk of slipping during drilling. They are often made from high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide, with some bits coated in diamond for enhanced cutting ability. To prevent overheating and potential cracking, it is essential to operate at low speeds and use water for cooling during the drilling process. Available in various diameters, glass drill bits are versatile for different applications, producing smooth cuts and professional finishes in glasswork.
