The Faithfull 4-Piece Tile & Glass Drill Bit Set is designed for DIY enthusiasts and professionals who need to create clean, precise holes in brittle materials like glass, mirrors, ceramic tiles, and glass bottles. These bits offer a significant advantage for decorative projects or hardware installation due to their specialized tungsten carbide spear tips. However, they require careful handling and constant lubrication, as improper speed or pressure can quickly overheat and ruin the carbide tips.

No. The impact mechanism will damage the tungsten carbide spear tip immediately.
Yes. Water acts as a lubricant and coolant. Skipping this step will cause the tip to overheat and fail prematurely.
No. Tempered glass will shatter instantly upon contact with any drill bit. These bits are for standard glass, mirrors, and ceramics only.
The set includes a maximum diameter of 6mm.
No. Use light, consistent pressure. Let the bit do the work; heavy pressure increases the risk of cracking the material.
Apply a small piece of masking tape over the center mark to provide friction for the bit.
Reduce your pressure and ensure you are using a slow drill speed with consistent lubrication.
You may have been drilling at too high a speed or without sufficient water lubrication, causing the carbide to overheat.
