Best diamond dry core bits?

[jonnyswamp]

Following on from Masoods DDM1 or DDM3 thread, I need a new 117mm core bit, there are loads out there, I would think quite a few the same just badged up different
What have you got, is it any good, or what would you recommend

they all wear out so cheaper ones are just as good as expensive ones, especially as one rogue wall tie will kill any core drill!!

Don't buy cheap ones unless you like hanging onto a drill.
Not all diamonds are the same.
Rebar and wall ties just slow you down a bit especially the old fishtail ones but no reason to stop.

especially if you core drill with an sds!

I bought a Marcrist kit with the hoover etc about 8-10 yrs ago, the drills a bit like triggers broom and I have replaced various core bits over the years, mainly the cheap versions
Just wondered what others are using or would recommend
