Concrete Cutting: Carbide Vs. Tungsten Carbide Bits

Carbide and tungsten carbide bits are both highly durable materials used in concrete drilling, cutting, and grinding. Carbide bits are typically rated 8-9 out of 10 in terms of hardness, while tungsten carbide bits are rated 9-10. Tungsten carbide’s superior hardness makes it more suitable for drilling and cutting into very hard concrete, but it…
