All about the product
Set of 2 drills for very hard ceramic tiles and stoneware, 8 and 14 mm, C PROTECTOR GEN 2, ALPEN [0000304002100]
- C PROTECTOR GEN 2 drills are designed for the hardest ceramic and stoneware tiles, with a hardness of up to 9 on the Mohs scale, as well as glass and porcelain.
- Due to optimized geometry and improved cutting performance, they drill 156% more holes and work 31% faster than their predecessors.
- Despite the asymmetrical design of the drills, each drilling starts accurately from the set point,
- Non-slip handles with a six-slot design prevent the drills from spinning in the handle and ensure optimal torque transfer,
- the drills do not require cooling and are unsuitable for impact drilling,
- shortened necks increase stability during operation,
- the maximum allowable rotational speed is 600 rpm.
- the drills are intended for use in drills, both battery-operated and mains-powered drills without impact function,

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What specific materials is the C Protector drill designed for??
This drill has been created for the toughest tile installation challenges. It is designed for very hard porcelain tiles, top-grade ceramic tiles, granite, and even glass drilling. It can drill areas where traditional solid carbide drills quickly dull.
Is water cooling necessary when using the C type drill?+
The main advantage of the "C Protector" series is its ability to work completely dry. The patented design and special carbide insert mean that the drill does not require a constant water supply or special cooling systems. This allows for a clean working environment, which is crucial when performing finishing work on completed interior finishes.
Can the C Protector drill be used for impact drilling??
Under no circumstances should you use the hammer function. Drilling hard ceramics or glass with C protection should only be done in rotary mode. Using the hammer function will instantly crack the unique carbide plate and destroy the structure of the drilled tile.
What speed is recommended when drilling hard ceramic tiles?
When drilling such hard materials, it is crucial to manage the speed precisely. The maximum permissible speed for C Protector drills is 600 RPM. Exceeding this speed significantly increases the temperature at the material contact point, which greatly shortens the drill's service life and may cause burnout.
Why does this drill have such an unusual working tip shape?+
The unique, pointed, and sharply tapered head is the result of advanced "Alpen" engineering research. This geometry ensures perfect centering from the very first seconds of use. The drill does not slip on an ideally smooth, glazed ceramic surface, eliminating the risk of scratching the tile around the intended hole.
What to do after drilling through a ceramic tile if a deeper hole in the wall is needed??
The "C Protector" drill is exclusively designed for fragile and hard materials, such as ceramics or glass. After drilling through tiles, it is necessary to switch to a drill designed for masonry or concrete, such as the previously mentioned "F4 Forte" or "Profi Multicut", and only then finish drilling the hole in the structural base. Continuing to drill in concrete or bricks with the "C Protector" drill will immediately damage the drill.
