Diamond drilling, on the up...

Have you heard of diamond drilling? If not then this post will tell you everything you need to know.

The reason you may not have heard about diamond drilling is because the kind of job that involves making holes in hard materials such as concrete or softer materials such as brick and blocks may have been sub-contracted out to other companies.

Because the economy is currently in a bad place, companies are searching for ways to cut spending costs and to do that they are looking to get things done themselves and for this reason we, here at Red Band, have seen a large increase in the sales of our diamond drills.

Diamond drilling is a technique that involves drilling using one of either two elements, dry drilling or wet drilling. Dry drilling is done by hand to make entries (holes) into materials such as brick and block work for cables and small channels for cable installation.

Wet diamond drilling is applied using a wet diamond drill bit and a rig mounted motor to create holes in harder materials such as concrete and natural stone, this provides a greater amount of stability when drilling.

Diamond drilling is simple and easy to bring in-house because it is relatively cheap and does not require large amounts of initial investment to get started.

It is just the case that the more you practice you have at diamond drilling the better you will become and then there will be no need to get others to do the work for you subsequently cutting costs long term.

Here at Red Band we have many diamond drilling products at a reduced cost to get you started, these consist of the following:
