Description
Overview
The Alpha DTB00250 Trimmer Bit uses vacuum-brazed diamonds to cut non-standard openings and curved lines in hard tile and stone. Its 1/4-inch shank is intended for compatible high-speed trimmer tools, making it useful where a large circular blade cannot follow the desired shape.
Features
- Vacuum-brazed construction for cutting hard surface materials.
- Suitable for wet or dry work with an appropriate tool setup.
- Designed for large holes and shaped cutouts.
Specifications
- Model: DTB00250

Applications
Use this bit to form cutouts for electrical receptacles, water valves, drains and shower controls in granite, engineered stone, natural stone, porcelain or ceramic tile.
Selection and Use
- Check the trimmer’s collet for the 1/4-inch shank and keep its operating speed within the bit’s maximum rating.
- Choose it for curved or irregular openings rather than assuming the bit diameter determines the finished opening size.
- Select a wet or dry method supported by the trimmer as well as the bit.
