Diamond core bit for tiles GEKO 6 mm (1/4" HEX) – 36 mm depth, 65 mm length, max 1000 RPM

The GEKO 6 mm diamond core bit is a professional-grade tool designed for precise drilling in hard materials. Featuring a 1/4" HEX shank, this bit is compatible with standard power drills and impact drivers, ensuring a secure grip and efficient power transfer. The cutting head is equipped with a high-quality diamond matrix infused with cooling wax, which facilitates dry drilling by absorbing heat and extending the tool's lifespan without the need for external water cooling.

Advantages

This diamond core bit offers exceptional durability and clean cutting performance when working with brittle materials. The integrated wax cooling system allows for continuous operation in dry conditions, preventing overheating and reducing the risk of material cracking. Its compact design and standardized shank make it highly versatile for various drilling tasks, providing a stable and accurate start to every hole.

Suitable for

• Porcelain tiles
• Ceramic tiles
• Stoneware
• Natural stone

When it may not be suitable

This tool is not intended for drilling through metal, concrete, or reinforced masonry, as these materials can quickly damage the diamond segments. It is also not suitable for high-speed drilling applications exceeding the recommended rotation limit.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 6 mm
• Shank type: 1/4" HEX
• Drilling depth: 36 mm
• Total length: 65 mm
• Maximum speed: 1000 RPM
• Cooling method: Integrated wax matrix

How to use

To achieve the best results, start the drilling process at a slight angle to create a groove, then gradually straighten the bit to a perpendicular position. Apply steady, moderate pressure without forcing the tool, allowing the diamond matrix to do the work. Maintain a speed below 1000 RPM to prevent overheating and ensure the longevity of the diamond coating.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your drill or driver supports a 1/4" HEX shank.
• Verify that the material hardness is compatible with diamond-tipped tools.
• Check that your equipment can maintain a controlled speed under 1000 RPM.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results and to maximize the life of the diamond bit, avoid using hammer mode on your drill. Always keep the bit clean and allow it to cool down periodically during intensive use.
