Small diameters can be drilled hand-held, but an anchored rig gives a much straighter, truer hole and is safer. At large diameters it is mandatory.

When is a vacuum base used?

Where anchor holes are not acceptable in the surface. The surface must be smooth and non-porous, or the vacuum will not hold.

Why is a water feed set necessary?

Wet core drilling needs continuous cooling; if the water stops the segments burn within moments and the bit is finished. The set keeps pressure and flow under control.

Core Drilling Accessories

Core drilling accessories anchor the machine and keep the cooling steady; hole accuracy depends largely on them. The catalogue holds 11 products.

Rigs, adapters and cooling

An anchored rig fixes the machine to the surface and gives a far straighter, truer hole than hand-held work; at large diameters it is mandatory for safety. Vacuum bases are used where anchor holes are not acceptable.

Thread adapters convert between fitting sizes. Water feed sets keep wet core drilling cooled continuously — when the water stops, the segments burn within moments.
