Drill bit for tiles Proline Urbis stick 5x68 mm

Proline Urbis stick drill bit 5 x 68 mm with a YG-6X tungsten carbide tip, designed for wet drilling in glass and soft ceramic products. The cylindrical shank fits most handheld drills and the bit is intended for creating precise holes for fixtures and fittings in tile, porcelain and similar materials while minimising chipping.

Advantages

The YG-6X tungsten carbide tip offers high wear resistance for drilling in glass and soft ceramics. Wet drilling reduces heat and dust, improving hole quality and extending tool life. The cylindrical shank ensures compatibility with common drill chucks and stable rotation for accurate, clean cuts.

Suitable for

• Drilling holes in ceramic wall and floor tiles
• Installing bathroom and kitchen fixtures (taps, fittings, handles)
• Working with porcelain and other soft ceramic materials

How to use

Secure the tile and mark the drilling point. Use a handheld drill at low to moderate speed with a constant water supply or coolant to keep the bit and workpiece wet. Begin drilling with light pressure to establish the hole, then apply steady, even pressure. Withdraw the bit periodically to remove slurry and avoid clogging. Finish the hole keeping the drill perpendicular to the surface for a clean edge.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate eye protection and gloves. Avoid excessive speed and pressure; rely on water cooling for heat control. Do not use this bit for hard stone or reinforced concrete to prevent premature wear or damage.
