Thanks to its precision and efficiency, diamond drilling is actually an excellent method for drilling into a range of materials, including stone. This technique can be used to work with stones of varying hardness levels.
Our diamond drilling team in Cornwall has the ability to create clean and precise holes without causing significant damage to the surrounding material.
This process is particularly effective for drilling into hard materials due to the exceptional hardness of diamonds. It’s commonly used with a variety of materials, including:
- Rock and stone. Diamond drilling is extensively used in mining and quarrying to extract core samples or for exploration purposes in hard rock formations.
- Concrete. Our diamond drilling team in Cornwall often work on construction projects which need the creation of holes in reinforced concrete, as diamond-tipped drill bits can easily cut through the tough material.
- Metal. While not as common as in other materials, diamond drilling can be used for drilling into hard metals, especially in specialised industries where high precision is required.
- Glass and ceramics especially in industries where accuracy and clean cuts are crucial.
Diamond drilling truly shines when it’s being used on hard, abrasive materials where conventional drilling methods might struggle or prove less effective. If you need diamond drilling for your project in the south west, we would love to hear from you.
