Make sure you know what you are cutting!!! Feb 21, 2010

I had some thicker tile, but light glazing and it was a wall tile, but I suppose it could be floor tile also. It did not say floor tile. So, based on the tile package and Rotozip XB-TC1 Tile cut X Bit packaging, it sure looked like it should have worked. $12 at Lowes. I was cutting a 1 1/2" circle for a pipe. Initial entry hole went well working it around as I went through the tile. However, it didn't even get me 1/2 way before it lost it's cutting ability!!! I was going slow and worked it up and down. I was ticked, especially since this is the second one I've tried. ($24 so far). Finally had to break down and buy the $40 thicker Rotozip diamond bit. Rotozip is great overall, just DO NOT USE this bit ON THICKER TILE! Hope my mistake won't be yours.

nice for the DIYer Jul 27, 2007

I don't use these bits for everyday work, so I can't really testify as to their durablity for that purpose. What I can say is these bits make nice smooth cuts in ceramic tile. I have tiled both bathrooms in my house, the foyer and the kitchen, and have used only one bit. Love the RotoZip, a great tool that comes in handy in so many situations.
Great for wall tile Dec 03, 2011
By Sara Heimbecker Used to cut switchboxes in basic kitchen wall tile and worked great. Lots of control. (See other reviewer's comment about poor performance in floor tile though; I haven't tried it but might be a warning to heed.) A reciprocating saw would have broken tiles or pulled them off the wall.
I hate doing anything with pre-exiting tile; Glad to have this bit and tool in the arsenal.
not a tile cutter Aug 29, 2011

I bought this bit to use with my RotoZip to trim some tile on a counter top. The tile was ceramic and thin. The bit failed after less than 2" of cut. This bit cannot cut tile and should not be advertised as such. I am a professional tradesman, cabinet/furniture maker for over 20 years and use and come across a lot of tools. The roto zip is good for one thing...cutting a hole in a piece of drywall. That's it, and it does it well. It's not a router, laminate trimmer, or a TILE cutter:) You can buy all the attachments and proprietary bit they make for it now and it is still...a drywall cutting tool. The 1/4" RotoZip bit which I purchased last week and used in a Bosch Colt router worked extremely well for 10ft of cutting and then failed. Unfortunately I had 14' so I will be ordering another 1/4" bit to finish up. Ceramic tile is a tough material and best cut with a wet saw or scoring. If you have to cut a radius or sink out (as I did) use the 1/4" bit. It's pricey at 25. but it does a very good job.
Perfect for thin stiff .... non-starter for thick stuff Apr 07, 2011

Used with RZ2000.
The GOOD: This thing blew right through (cleanly) hardy-backer. Found that out after failed attempts using wood/drywall bits. Also goes though thinner wall tile cleanly and pretty quickly.
The BAD: Try this on 3/8" porcelain floor tile and you will ruin your bit almost immediately. If you need to make a really really (REALLY) small hole, this could do it, but plan to expend the entire life of a fresh bit on that hole. Or better yet, find a better bit or another option to get it done.
SUMMARY: Great for light duty tile/backer cutting, worth keeping available if you are in a jam with something heavier.
