Diamonds are used to make drill tips primarily due to their exceptional hardness, which allows them to effectively cut through tough materials like rock and concrete. Their durability ensures that drill bits maintain their sharpness and performance over extended use. Additionally, diamonds can withstand high temperatures generated during drilling, making them ideal for high-performance applications in mining and construction.

Why is tungsten used in drill tips?
Tungsten carbide is used in drill tips for drilling through concrete etc. The Tungsten carbide is a very hard material almost as hard as diamond. Usually a small piece of TC is brazed onto the end of a drill. An even harder material used in engineering is Boron Nitride BN, and interestingly is found in three allotropes as is carbon; one of these is soft like graphite, one is almost as hard as diamond. Depending on the arrangement of the matrix of atoms.
