Comparison Of The BEST TILE DRILL BITS: Carbide Vs. Diamond Core Vs. Diamond Brazed Core

In this video, I test three different tile drill bits from Home Depot to find the best one, saving you time and money. The three bits I’m comparing are a carbide-tipped bit, a diamond core bit, and a diamond-brazed core bit for use with an angle grinder.
Watch as I drill through various types of tiles, including ceramic, porcelain, slate, and glass mosaic, and measure the time it takes each bit to complete the task. Learn about the tools you need, safety tips, and the pros and cons of each drill bit. By the end, you’ll know which bit is the most efficient and durable for your tile projects.

03:22 Carbide Drill Bit
05:21 Diamond Core Drill Bit
07:20 Angle Grinder Core Bit

Tools and Materials Used:
Carbide-tipped drill bit (Milwaukee) - $16.47
Diamond core drill bit (Milwaukee) - $22.47
Diamond brazed core drill bit (Monster) - $11.72
Pump sprayer for water cooling - $8.97

Safety First: Always wear personal protective equipment (PPE) like safety glasses, ear protection, and a mask. It’s a good idea to have a friend help you spray water to keep the bit cool and prevent slipping.

Conclusion: The diamond brazed core bit for an angle grinder is the best tile drill bit, offering fast and efficient drilling, especially for larger projects. If you need a bit immediately, the carbide bit is a reliable choice.
