Does anyone know if these can be used to cut masonry?

The particular set of three shown here are good for metal, wood and plastic. You can buy one that is studded with diamond dust that will cut masonry. I have one (more expensive) but haven't used it yet so don't know how long it will last.

I have never tried that with this drill, but from past experience, you need a hammer drill, or a box full of masonry bits because they will keep breaking.

I didn't have a masonry blade, but I tried several others with no luck. If the blade will cut it, this saw should do it. I ended up using a grinder with a cut off wheel. It did the job.

Actually I did do that when cutting slabs of cement for a wall. The tool performed just fine. I just didn't like the thickness of the blade and considered it a waste of my time so went back to the thinner masonry blades, not to mention what a waste of money on the diamond blade. Perhaps you found a different blade than what was available here.

I bought it to cut ceramic tile which is much harder than brick. i have cur some slate with it, too. Although I have not tried it on brick I can't imagine you'd have any problem other than possible clearance (thickness) issues.

NO! These are not Masonary bits. You need to get a masonary bit for concrete.

These are good for wood, or light gauge sheet metal. Impact bits go into a rotary hammer for concrete and masonry, they generally have carbide tips. Dale

Not advisable, however if you're just wanting to drill one hole for something, you can buy a masonry drill bit but they don't last long and it's hard on the drill. It's best to buy a hammer drill if you're going to be doing a lot of concrete/masonry drilling.

Beth,The carbide and or diamond particle bits should be able to. Try them out on a piece of scrap material first. Be sure your material is held down so it won't move. Try a gentle touch first.You may want to "GOOGLE" DREMEL bits for cutting stone and hard wood...there maybe more robust bits for that purpose.What do you make?I hope this helps.Tom Lewis 602 214 4617

I think you can use a diamond bit masonary blade that should be able do the job. Take it slow when you are cutting.

These are not masonry drill bits. I wouldn't recommend that. However DEWALT's DW5207 drill bits set would work.

HI, I would not use them for masonary work, fine for anything else though including hardened metals.

Put the right diamond or masonry cutting disk on there and you can use it all day every day to cut thru ceramic tile, sure. http://www.harborfreight.com/pack-of-10-4-1-2-half-inch-cut-off-wheels-for-masonry-45431.html

Yes, I believe you could cut them with a hacksaw or other appropriate saw, as they are steel.

I would think a circular saw would cut through them easily, they are a little too thick to use an untility knife or hacksaw without it taking forever, though possible in a pinch

I don't believe so. They are meant for baking/cookie cutting and are not that sharp.

No. The downward impact may not be enought to break masonary. Buy the crafstman bolt-on hammer drill attachment, it will fit the B&D; matrix system and work on masonry
