In the fields of geology and drilling, various types of equipment are frequently used in the drilling process. However, because diamond is the hardest metal found on the Earth’s surface, diamond core bits are paramount in drilling procedures. These diamond core drill bits are widely used by professionals involved in mining and drilling. An important point to discuss here is how to find the appropriate diamond core bit for our use.

1. Material Hardness
The hardness of the material you intend to drill is a crucial factor in determining which diamond core drill bit to use. If you’re drilling ultra-hard materials like alumina, natural stone, materials with high metal content, or other similar materials, it’s best to choose a metal-bonded diamond core drill bit.
For drilling softer materials that are less expensive, such as glass, soft stone, tile, and composite materials, you should opt for a nickel-bonded diamond core drill bit. These types of diamond core drill bits are advantageous in the aforementioned scenarios. It’s important to note here that material hardness refers to the material’s ability to resist deformation.
2. Material Cost
The price and value of the material influence the selection of the right diamond core drill bit. If the material is expensive and valuable, you’ll want to minimize material loss during the drilling process. Therefore, thin diamond core drill bits should be used for high-cost materials.

3. Material Thickness
If the material is thicker than average, you’ll need to apply higher pressure. Along with the appropriate amount of pressure, coolant should also be applied. It’s advisable to apply coolant from multiple directions, such as the drill center, as in drilling submerged in coolant and from the sides of the drill. This procedure of applying coolant from multiple directions ensures that the maximum amount of drilling lubricant reaches the drilling area of the material. This allows you to effectively use diamond core drill bits on rock.
4. Material Density and Shape
Every material has its density and shape. Therefore, the techniques applied to a specific material should not be used on other materials. Diamond core bits should primarily be made to enhance effectiveness for specific types of materials.
5. Equipment Used
Along with all the factors of the material, the equipment used with the diamond core bit is also a crucial factor in selecting the right diamond core drill bit. If you don’t use the right drilling equipment, the drill bit won’t be effective. Here are materials where diamond core drill bits are used effectively:
- High-speed spindles
- Drill presses
- Angle grinders
- Cordless drills
- Milling machines
