ELEMENT-X Core Bit – 1-1/4 in., T-Segment with Side Protection
The ELEMENT-X Core Bit is a 1-1/4 in. core bit for drilling through-holes in slab, with T-segments, diamond side protection and a 5/8 in.-11 thread. Ocean Diamond hyphenates the line name as ELEMENT-X.
No wet or dry instruction is stated on this page, because Ocean Diamond's two own sources disagree: the current price list heads this block "ELEMENT Dry Core Bit" and names every item an ELEMENT-X Dry Core Bit, while the website calls the same line ELEMENT-X Dry/Wet and states wet use only on engineered stone and quartz. Confirm the running instruction before use. The plain ELEMENT Dry/Wet Core Bit, whose instruction is unambiguous, is stocked in 1 in., 1-1/4 in., 1-3/8 in. and 3-1/2 in.
