CRL PDT134 1-3/4" Belgian Series Metal Bond Diamond Drill

C.R. Laurence PDT134 1-3/4" PDT Belgian Series Metal Bond Diamond Drill is engineered for high-volume glass fabrication, making it an essential tool for professionals in the industry. With a robust 3/8" diamond matrix depth, this drill is designed to deliver precision and durability, enabling the creation of 1,000 to 2,000 holes in 1/4" (6.4 mm) glass with proper maintenance. This Italian-manufactured drill features a multi-layer design that cuts faster and runs cooler than comparable products. The 3/8" (10 mm) deep cutting surface is filled with diamonds and bronze bond, providing an extended drill life. The PDT series offers two mounting styles-straight shank or Belgian thread-making it versatile for a variety of drilling machines, including portable options like the CRL AMZ1. Safety is paramount when using this drill; operators should always wear gloves and eye protection, and work on a flat, horizontal surface. For optimal performance, a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt Device is recommended when using electric tools with water. The PDT134 is not just a drill; it’s a reliable partner for your glass fabrication needs, ensuring quality results time and again.

• Designed for High-Volume Glass Fabrication
• 3/8" Diamond Matrix Depth
• Two Mounting Styles to Choose From, Straight Shank or Belgian Thread

CRL PD and PDT Series Metal Bond Diamond Drills use a special diamond and brass bond for maximum performance in glass. Metal Bond Drills offer the longest life of any type of diamond drill; 1,000 to 2,000 holes in 1/4" (6.4 mm) glass with proper maintenance and the use of a wet Sharpening Stone to expose fresh diamonds. These Italian made multi-layer drills cut faster and run cooler than any other drill on the market. They have a full 3/8" (10 mm) deep cutting surface filled with diamonds and bronze bond, which allows for extended drill life, but also makes this style of drill more fragile. They should always be used in true running machines on flat glass surfaces. The CRL PD Series features an extra long 1-3/8" x 3/8" (35 x 10 mm) diameter shank for a positive grip on the drill. The CRL PDT Series features Belgian style mounting threads (also known as 1/2" (12.7 mm) gas thread), which are popular among all U.S. and European glass drilling machines. They can be used in portable drill machines such as the CRL AMZ1, but they are especially suited for production equipment.


NOTE: Always wear the proper safety gear including gloves and eye protection when drilling glass. Work should be performed on a flat, horizontal surface. A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt Device (Cat. No. GF1) must be used when using any type of electric tool in conjunction with water or coolant. Failure to follow any of these precautions can result in operator injury.
