Details

The Vires Glass and Tile Drill Bit 8mm features a precision-ground tungsten carbide tip and a reinforced spearhead design to provide clean, chip-free holes in delicate surfaces like glass, mirrors, and ceramic tiles.

The Vires Glass and Tile Drill Bit is an essential tool for any installer or DIY enthusiast working with fragile materials. Designed to tackle the challenges of drilling into non-tempered glass and standard ceramic tiles, this 8mm specialty bit uses a sharp spearhead geometry to "shave" the material rather than hammer through it. This significantly reduces the risk of cracking or shattering the substrate, ensuring a professional finish for bathroom accessories, mirror mountings, and kitchen fittings.

Precision Performance for Fragile Surfaces

Engineered for accuracy, the Vires bit features a high-grade tungsten carbide cutting edge that maintains its sharpness through multiple uses. The 8mm diameter is perfectly sized for standard wall plugs and heavy-duty fixing kits. For the best results and maximum tool life, it is recommended to use the bit at low speeds with consistent water cooling, allowing the carbide tip to glide through the surface without overheating or wandering.

  • Spearhead Carbide Tip: Specifically shaped to provide a clean entry point, preventing the bit from "skating" across smooth surfaces and ensuring pinpoint accuracy.
  • Chip-Free Cutting: Designed to minimize vibration and stress on the material, resulting in smooth, round holes without the unsightly breakout often caused by standard masonry bits.
  • 8mm Versatile Diameter: The ideal size for installing shower rails, towel bars, and large mirrors that require sturdy, medium-sized fixings.
  • Universal Round Shank: Compatible with all standard keyed or keyless drill chucks, making it a versatile addition to any tool bag.
  • Durable Construction: Built to withstand the friction of hard surfaces, providing reliable performance on ceramics, porcelain (soft to medium), and glass.

Whether you are mounting a new vanity unit or installing decorative glass shelving, the Vires 8mm Glass and Tile Drill Bit provides the surgical precision required for the job. Its high-strength cutting head and specialized design make it a dependable choice for achieving flawless results on the most sensitive surfaces.
