Diamond drill bit Distar 11133048023 — 23 mm diameter, wet drilling for masonry and tile

Diamond drill bit Distar 11133048023 — 23 mm diameter, wet drilling for masonry and tile is a diamond-segment core bit engineered for wet cutting of masonry materials. It is intended to produce precise circular holes in brick, concrete and ceramic tile with minimized chipping when used with water cooling. The design combines a reinforced steel body with a continuous diamond-segment crown to maintain cutting speed and hole quality during repetitive professional or home tasks.

Advantages

The diamond crown ensures stable cutting performance on hard and abrasive surfaces while water cooling reduces dust, prevents overheating and extends tool life. A 23 mm diameter provides a common size for plumbing and electrical pass-throughs, and the bit construction supports accurate, round holes with reduced spalling on ceramic and concrete edges. The robust connection to drill arbors maintains concentricity and repeatable results across multiple cuts.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes for plumbing pipes through brick, concrete and tile
• Creating openings for electrical conduit and cable glands
• Installing anchors, fastenings and fixtures in masonry
• Repair and renovation work where precise tile penetrations are required

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 23 mm
• Drilling method: wet drilling (water cooling recommended)
• Applicable materials: brick, concrete, ceramic tile and other masonry
• Tip type: diamond-segment crown for hard and abrasive surfaces
• Body material: reinforced steel shank for stability and concentricity

How to use

Secure the diamond drill bit in a compatible rotary drill or drill rig designed for core bits, ensuring a firm, correctly seated connection. Position the drill perpendicularly to the working surface and start at low speed to establish a guide groove. Apply steady, moderate pressure while maintaining constant water flow to the cutting area to cool the diamond segments and remove slurry. Allow the bit to break through gradually; avoid forcing the tool. After completing the hole, withdraw the bit while continuing water flow to flush debris and prevent clogging.

Usage recommendations

Use continuous water feed or a compatible wet-drilling system to maximize cutting efficiency and lifetime. Select a drill with appropriate power and speed control for masonry work, and use personal protective equipment including eye protection and hearing protection. For tiled surfaces, consider starting on a piece of masking tape or using a guide to reduce slipping at the start. Store the bit dry after cleaning to prevent corrosion of the steel body.
