What Is Diamond Core Drilling?
Diamond core drilling is a method of creating precise circular holes in concrete, brick, or stone using a diamond-tipped core bit. It’s ideal for creating openings for pipes, ducts, and cables without damaging surrounding materials. Because diamonds are extremely hard, the process cuts smoothly and silently compared to percussive drilling.
