Hole saw for tiles RUBI 5964 Wet Cut D40 – 40 mm wet cutting diamond core for ceramic and porcelain

RUBI 5964 Wet Cut D40 is a 40 mm diamond hole saw engineered for wet cutting of ceramic and porcelain tiles. It is designed to produce precise circular holes for plumbing fixtures, faucets and pipe penetrations during tile installation and renovation. The cup-style diamond core requires a water feed to reduce dust and heat, and is compatible with drill and core systems that support wet cutting.

Advantages

The diamond cutting edge provides consistent performance and long life on glazed and porcelain tile surfaces. Wet cutting reduces dust and prevents overheating of both the tool and the tile, improving cut quality and minimizing chipping. The 40 mm diameter delivers a common size for fittings and allows clean, accurate circular holes with proper guidance and steady rotation.

Suitable for

• Making faucet and mixer holes in ceramic wall and floor tiles
• Creating pipe and conduit penetrations through porcelain tiles
• Renovation work requiring precise circular openings in glazed tile surfaces
• Use with wet-feed drill rigs or hand drills equipped for wet cutting

Key specifications

• Cutting diameter: 40 mm
• Cutting method: wet diamond core drilling
• Intended materials: ceramic tile, porcelain tile, glazed surfaces
• Tool type: cup-style diamond hole saw for circular holes
• Cooling: requires continuous water feed during operation

How to use

Secure the diamond hole saw in a compatible drill or core system following the tool-holder manufacturer’s instructions. Position the tile on a stable surface or use an appropriate drilling jig to prevent movement. Start the drill at low speed to establish the cutting groove, then maintain steady rotation and a constant water supply to the cutting area. Apply light, even pressure; do not force the tool. Withdraw periodically to allow water circulation and remove slurry. Complete the cut by gradually increasing depth until the hole is through the tile, then clean the opening and edges.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection and gloves. Ensure the water supply is steady to avoid overheating and to maximize diamond life. For best results on large-format or very hard porcelain, support the tile adequately and consider using a pilot guide or drilling jig to maintain perpendicular alignment.
