[QUOTE="philg43, post: 125490"] Hi Fred, Sorry about the delay, been busy with an exhibition and one of those weekend thingys.:yes: I usually quote worst case scenario in the hardest grades of porcelain. If used correctly you should achieve 15 - 20 holes. This could rise to over 50 depending on the grade and thickness of the tile. The most common problem people have is when they don't apply enough pressure whilst drilling. It sounds a bit backwards but you can wear these drill bits by not pressing on hard enough. They must be allowed to make progress, if they "dwell" wear will occur. The first holes should be produced in seconds. If this doesn't happen, it's usually down to incorrect speed or insufficient pressure. If you still have the drill bit, please feel free to send it to me, I will take a look and see if I can shed any light on it. PM me for a return address if you like. Phil. [/QUOTE]
