CORING
Core drilling techniques are used when
precise, circular cuts are needed. Holes of almost any
diameter are easily drilled to make openings for plumbing,
electrical and HVAC installations. Core drilling is
also commonly used to create holes for routing cables
or placing anchoring bolts, installing load carrying
devices or dowel bars, or for concrete sample analysis.
A core drill bit consists of a steel tube with diamond
segments brazed or laser welded on the drilling end.
The core bits are mounted on the rotating shaft of various
types of drilling machines. Core drills can be operated
in any orientation, vertical or horizontal. Core drill
machines can be powered by electric, hydraulic or air
power sources. Core drill bits can range in diameter
from 1 - 12 inches and drilling depths are virtually
unlimited with the barrel extensions.
