Diamax Cyclone Dry/Wet Core Bit – 1/2 in., for Granite, Quartz & Marble
The Diamax Cyclone Dry/Wet Core Bit is a 1/2 in. core bit for drilling small holes in granite, marble and quartz.
It threads onto any 5/8 in.-11 thread spindle and runs on an angle grinder, a drill or a pneumatic machine. Diamax publishes separate wet and dry speed limits for this line, and the dry limit is the one people miss.
