Drill bits can be made from steel which is a mxture compriing mainly of iron. Many drill bits are coated with a very hard yellowish chemical compound titanium carbide. (made of titanium and carbon)
Sure! You just need the proper bit and a hammerdrill and you're good to go. There's a lot of good bits at your local hardware to drill stone with, but most often you get what you pay for. For instance if moneys no object and you want to drill real fast, buy a diamond dust coated bit. Most of the ordinary cheapies work fairly good. You should lubricate the bit as you drill or it can overheat.
Diamonds are very hard, so they don't wear or blunt much when drilling through softer materials.
Industrial tools such as diamond-tipped drill bits or hydraulic hammers with high pressure and heat can cut through bedrock. These tools are commonly used in construction, mining, and drilling operations to break through hard rock formations.
A drill press or a metal drill bit attached to a power drill is commonly used to bore holes in metal. These tools are designed to exert enough force to penetrate through the tough surface of the metal.
Drill bits not only come in fractional number sizes they also come in letter sizes. The F size drill bit is .257 thousandths of an inch in diameter. A 1/4 inch drill bit is .250 thousandths of an inch in diameter, so size F is .007 thousandths of an inch bigger than a 1/4 inch drill bit.

Yes, mortising bits are made for drill press use.
They are used in bits that cut stone or tile.
Hss drill bits, Titanium coated drill bits and brad point drill bits.
When I had a large shop I used to have 3 racks on the wall behind the bench drill press, one for standard drill bits, one for specialist drill bits and one for hole saws, Forstner bits and fly bits.
Yes, metal drill bits can be used for woodwork, but it is recommended to use wood-specific drill bits for better results and to prevent damage to the wood.
The different types of drill bits designed for drilling into metal are twist drill bits, cobalt drill bits, and titanium drill bits.
Yes, metal drill bits can be used for drilling wood, but they may not be as effective as wood-specific drill bits. Wood drill bits are designed with a different shape and cutting edge that is better suited for wood drilling, resulting in cleaner and more efficient cuts.
Diamonds are widely used in the tool industry to tip drill bits and to edge blades that cut tile, stone and rock.
Drill bits are for fitting into a drilling machine to drill holes.
