📊 AI MARKET SNAPSHOT
• Best For: Installers cutting a compact 1-1/4" opening in ceramic tile or marble, where the larger 1-3/4" and 2-1/4" MK-290 bits would be oversized.
• Highlight: The 1-1/4" MK-290 uses MK Diamond's turbo-style rim, used on sizes up to 2-1/4", paired with a replaceable pilot drill to prevent wandering when starting the hole.
• Expert Note: For a 1-1/4" hole, start on the pilot drill and let the turbo rim do the cutting; wet or dry use are both fine, and larger openings call for the 1-3/4" or 2-1/4" sizes.
