Mexco Diamond Core Drill Bits - 9 Piece Dry Cutting Set for Masonry

A complete hole-cutting solution for masonry work:

This Mexco 9-piece kit gives tradesmen three core sizes in a single case, covering the most common hole diameters needed for pipework, cables, and ducting through brick and block. The three DCX90-grade core drills measure 38mm, 52mm, and 117mm in diameter, each with a 170mm barrel length, and all use the standard ½" BSP Female Fitment that is common across the Mexco dry core drill range.

DCX90 grade construction for site use:

Each core drill in the set features Brazed Flat Curve segments with a 10mm segment height and a Slotted and Fluted steel barrel. The high diamond concentration in the X90-grade segments delivers long-life cutting performance and fast waste removal without the need for water cooling. Hammer or impact drilling action must never be used with these bits; drill speeds of between 440 and 2,500 rpm are required depending on the core size selected.

Suitable materials and limitations:

The set is designed for facing bricks, concrete blocks, breeze blocks, insulation blocks, and soft stone. It is not suitable for reinforced or non-reinforced concrete, or for engineering or clay bricks. A minimum drill motor power of 850W fitted with a slipping clutch is required for correct and safe operation.

Compact carry case and restockable components:

All nine components store neatly in the included aluminium and plastic rolling carry case, keeping the kit organised between jobs. Every item in the set can be purchased individually from the Mexco range, so worn or damaged bits can be replaced without buying the entire kit again.

Frequently Asked Questions

What materials can these diamond core drill bits cut through?

This diamond core drill set is suited to facing bricks, concrete blocks, breeze blocks, insulation blocks, and soft stone. It cannot be used on reinforced or non-reinforced concrete, or on engineering and clay bricks. Using the bits on unsuitable materials will damage the segments and may create a safety risk. A minimum drill motor power of 850W fitted with a slipping clutch is also required.

Can these diamond core drill bits be used with a hammer or impact drill?

No. Hammer or impact drilling action must never be used with these bits - doing so will damage them. A rotary-only drill motor of at least 850W fitted with a slipping clutch is required. Drill speeds must fall between 440 and 2,500 rpm depending on the core size selected. The XMS26DCORE set includes both SDS and hex adaptors in 80mm and 250mm lengths to suit compatible rotary drill chucks.

What exactly comes in the box with this diamond core drill set?

The nine-piece set contains a 38mm, 52mm, and 117mm slotted dry core drill, an SDS 80mm adaptor, an SDS 250mm adaptor, a hex 80mm adaptor, a hex 250mm adaptor, a 10 x 175mm pilot drill, and a drift key. Everything stores in the included aluminium and plastic rolling carry case. Every component is also available to buy individually, so worn or damaged bits can be replaced without repurchasing the full kit.

Why are these diamond core drill bits faster than conventional drilling systems?

The DCX90-grade segments use a high diamond concentration in a Brazed Flat Curve construction, which cuts through masonry far more aggressively than standard drill bits. The slotted and fluted 170mm barrel clears waste quickly during dry cutting, maintaining cutting speed without water cooling. Mexco rates the system at up to three times faster than conventional drilling, with less dust, less noise, and reduced operator fatigue as additional benefits.
