How gospel is the max core bit size rating for core drills?

[WaterTight]

The ideal solution to any situation is not usually the one that resorts to reflexive lying, especially not with friends/family.

But I guess "You can't borrow it because I like you but I don't trust you have the opposable thumbs not to break it into pieces but I suspect you do have the chutzpah not to tell me you did" will lead to awkward situations

I guess your mate may well find out.

Whether or not he tells you may be another thing.
If it comes back in a smouldering heap - the rated size could be justified as gospel.

Thats the trouble with friends and family, they think that you have to lend them something because you've got it

I lent my core drill to someone once, it came back with a burnt out motor which cost me £110 to get fixed. Never again.
