Barcode: 5024763117589
MPN: 224760
Overview:
Quick Change Hex Tile Glass Drill Bit Set is a 3-piece set designed for clean, accurate drilling in ceramic tiles, glass and mirrors. Each bit features a flat, spear-shaped tungsten carbide tip for controlled cutting and reduced wandering, and the sizes are clearly marked on the shank for quick identification. With a quick-change 6.35mm (1/4") hex male drive, the bits fit most drill/drivers and hex bit holders for faster swapping on site or in the workshop. For best results, use low pressure and keep the tip lubricated while drilling to help prevent heat build-up and improve finish.

Hex Tile & Glass Drill Bit Set – Key FAQs
What materials are these bits designed for?
They’re designed for drilling ceramic tiles, glass and mirrors, producing clean, accurate holes when used with the correct technique.
What sizes are included?
The set includes 5mm, 6mm and 8mm drill bits for common fixing and fitting sizes.
What is the benefit of the quick-change hex drive?
The 6.35mm (1/4") hex shank allows faster bit changes in compatible holders and helps reduce slipping compared to round shanks.
Why is lubrication recommended?
Water lubrication helps cool the tungsten carbide tip, reduces heat build-up and improves cutting performance, helping to reduce cracking risk on brittle materials.
Do these bits have flutes?
No, they have a solid shank (no flute) design with a spear point tip, intended for controlled drilling on hard, brittle surfaces.
Can I use hammer action?
No—hammer action should not be used on tile, glass or mirror drilling. Use a steady speed, light pressure and cooling for best results.
