Diamond Drilling | Core Drilling Services in Northampton 

Concrete core drilling (also known as concrete coring) is the mechanical process of drilling a precise circular hole in concrete structures such as walls and floors. It involves the use of a core bit attached to the end of a core drill to perform the cutting.

Diamond tipped segments placed at the end of a core bit perform the cutting as the core bit spins or rotates whilst making contact with the surface to be cut.

Core drilling is suitable for drilling holes through concrete, masonry, asphalt, stone, or other solid surfaces.

Core holes are able to be drilled horizontally, vertically inverted, or angled.

The core bit removes approximately 4mm of the material which is cut by the segments of the core bit during the drilling process.

The inner section that becomes free is known as a core, hence the reason drilling of this nature is known as "core drilling".
