Not all electroplated diamond drills are created equal. Contrary to popular belief, diamond drills are not a commodity. Large differences in drill life and overall performance exist from manufacturer to manufacturer.
What Makes SMART CUT series 100DE diamond core drills different?
They have 3 layers of diamonds, not just 1 layer of diamonds like conventional electroplated drills. This provides longer drilling life, faster and freer drilling action, & more consistent performance. Unlike cheap imitations, diamond will not peel or pull out
What is Electroplating (Nickel bond)?
Electroplated (nickel bond) diamond products usually have a single layer of diamonds, held by a tough durable nickel alloy. Nickel is frequently used as a base for plating diamond. Because of its excellent strength, toughness and flexibility during the plating process. Electroplated diamond products are able to retain their original shape and dimensions thought their working life. Unlike sintered (meal bond) or resin bond diamond products, where diamond particles are buried in bond and held together by metal or resin binder deep inside. Electroplating allows diamond particles to protrude from the bond matrix, providing a free, faster cutting action with minimum heat generation.
Most Electroplated Diamond Core Drills/bits have only one (single) layer of diamond
coated on a steel body. Diamonds stay only on the surface. When this diamond portion is worn out or peeled off, the diamond drill will slow down, drill on the side (not drill straight) or stop working (drilling) altogether.
High Quality & Consistent Manufacturing Process/Quality Control
SMART CUT™ Series electroplated diamond core drills are produces in highly controlled, galvanic plating process & clean room environment under the Highest Quality Standards. Highly Experienced Engineers and chemists constantly monitor and control all material input & output at all stages of manufacturing process. Utilizing world class quality control, inspection, and measurement equipment. Insuring product consistency for use in demanding & sensitive applications. This process allows the tools to be produced with very tight tolerances, and optimize kerf shape, geometry, diamond size, and bond hardness to fit your particular application/requirements
Highest Quality Diamond Crystals & Raw Materials
Only the highest quality raw materials are used in manufacturing process.
Our experience, precision manufacturing, modern quality control methods, allow us to control and regulate dozens of variables that affect diamond drill life, quality of cut, surface finish.
SMART CUT series 100DE Diamond Core Drills are produced using SMART CUT technology
each diamond works like a small horse. Diamonds come in contact with the material in the right place and at the right time, working where you need them most. You get the maximum use out of diamond and bond.
RECOMMENDED APPLICATION FOR ELECTROPLATED DIAMOND CORE DRILLS
Electroplated Diamond Drills provide excellent performance on softer materials ranging from 6 to 1 on mohs scale of hardness. Diamonds stay on the surface of the drill allowing for fast material removal. Perfect for softer, more ductile, and gummable materials.
Electroplated Diamond Drills last less than metal bond, and are least expensive diamond drills available. They are frequently used in glass and composite industries (as well as some photonics / optics) applications. Electroplated Diamond Drills are designed for small & occasional use. They are widely used by beginning diamond drill users (novices) in numerous hobby/craft applications. As well as home owners and contractors requiring to drill a few holes when installing tile, marble, shower doors, glass mirrors, and etc. (not recommended for professional or serious industrial use).
They are also usually more forgiving to operator/user drilling mistakes than most other types of diamond drills/bits. Electroplated core drills (with very coarse diamond particles) are just about the only type of diamond drill that may be used dry (without coolant) in a few applications if needed. Best performance and results will be achieved when drilling less than 1/4" (6.35") into material. Performance/Life in many harder materials (granite as an example) will decline when drilling thicker materials.
Not recommended for drilling very abrasive materials such as sandstone and concrete (they will wear out on these materials almost immediately).
