Electroplated Diamond Drill Bit for Precision Glass, Ceramic, and Tile Drilling Applications

Electroplated Drill Bit is a precision drilling tool designed for clean, accurate, and efficient drilling in brittle and hard materials. Manufactured using an electroplating process, the drill bit features a single layer of high-quality industrial diamond particles firmly bonded to the steel body surface. This structure provides extremely sharp cutting edges, allowing the bit to start drilling easily with minimal pressure while maintaining excellent control and accuracy.

Electroplated diamond drill bits are especially suitable for materials such as glass, ceramic, porcelain, tile, marble, granite, quartz, and other fragile substrates that are prone to cracking or chipping. The sharp diamond coating reduces cutting resistance and heat generation during drilling, helping to produce smooth hole walls and clean edges without damaging the surrounding material. This makes electroplated drill bits ideal for applications that require high precision and fine surface quality.

Compared with sintered or brazed diamond tools, electroplated drill bits are optimized for light to medium-duty drilling tasks where precision is more important than extreme durability. The uniform distribution of diamond particles ensures consistent cutting performance throughout the drilling process. The open structure of the coating also allows better debris removal, improving drilling efficiency and reducing the risk of overheating.

Electroplated drill bits can be used in both wet and dry drilling applications, though water cooling is recommended when drilling hard materials such as glass or porcelain to extend tool life and improve cutting performance. They are commonly used with hand drills, bench drills, and CNC equipment depending on the shank type and application requirements.

These drill bits are widely applied in construction and decoration projects, bathroom and kitchen installations, glass processing, ceramic manufacturing, stone fabrication, and DIY home improvement work. Typical uses include drilling holes for fittings, anchors, pipes, electrical wiring, faucets, glass shelves, and decorative fixtures.

With advantages such as sharp cutting performance, smooth drilling results, ease of use, and cost-effective production, electroplated drill bits remain a popular choice for professionals and users who demand clean holes, accurate sizing, and reliable performance when working with brittle and hard materials.
