Diamond Plated Hole Saws
Diamond Electroplated Hole Saws
Diamond electroplated hole saws are precision cutting tools designed for drilling clean, accurate holes in hard, brittle, or abrasive materials that traditional carbide or HSS tools cannot handle effectively.
Key Features
-
Electroplated Diamond Layer: Industrial diamonds are bonded to the tool’s surface using an electroplating process, resulting in a single diamond layer with sharp cutting edges.
-
Thin Kerf Cutting: Produces minimal chipping and a fine surface finish.
-
High Precision: Ideal for applications requiring tight tolerances and clean hole quality.
-
Cooling Requirement: Typically used with water or coolant to prolong tool life and maintain performance.
Applications
-
Glass: Optical glass, microscope slides, quartz, and borosilicate glass.
-
Ceramics & Porcelain: Electronic ceramics, tiles, and technical ceramics.
-
Stone: Marble, granite, and semi-precious stones.
-
Composites: Carbon fiber, fiberglass, and advanced composites.
-
Semiconductors: Silicon wafers, sapphire, and other crystalline materials.
Advantages
-
Excellent for hard-to-machine, brittle materials.
-
Produces smooth and accurate holes with minimal cracking.
-
Works at relatively high cutting speeds compared to sintered diamond tools.
-
Less expensive than metal-bond diamond hole saws when precision is the main requirement.
Limitations
-
Single-layer diamond → shorter tool life compared to sintered (metal bond) hole saws.
-
Not suited for heavy-duty, high-production drilling in very thick materials.
-
Requires careful handling to avoid stripping the diamond coating.
