Artu 01445 Porcelain Tile Drill Bit, 3/8 In. Dia, 5/32 In. Pilot

The Artu 01445 is a specialized porcelain tile drill bit designed to cut clean, precise holes in hard ceramic and porcelain tiles with minimal chipping. The 3/8-inch diameter bit features a 5/32-inch pilot point that centers the hole automatically, eliminating the need for center punching or tape before drilling.

The Artu 01445 solves chipping problems with its cobalt tungsten carbide tip, which stays sharp longer and produces superior hole quality. The unique 4-face point grinding geometry reduces drilling pressure and extends bit life, while the 2-flute flat flute design efficiently removes dust and prevents clogging that can stall your work.
