Tungsten Carbide Bur

Tungsten carbide bur is a rotating tool that is used for removing material. More specifically, a tungsten carbide bur can be used for deburring, cleaning, finishing, smoothing, shaping, and carving many types of materials. Basically, the tungsten carbide bur rotates at a very high speed, enabling it to manipulate the material it is working on.

Tungsten carbide burs are very versatile tools, and they are used by a wide variety of people. They are commonly used in dentistry, diamond cutting, jewelry making, and auto head porting, as well as equine dentistry, sculpting, welding, and windshield repairing. Of course, tungsten carbide tools come in as many variations as the jobs they are able to do. So it makes sense that the type of tungsten carbide bur you choose will depend upon the job you expect it to do.

Tungsten carbide burs traditionally come in standard cut, double cut, and non- ferrous models. The most common types of burs are single cut (SC) burs, which remove the most amount of material. The drawback to using single cut tungsten carbide burs is that they leave a rather rough finish. Single cut tungsten carbide burs are commonly used when working with cast iron, steel, copper, brass, and other ferrous materials. They are also known as medium right hand spiral Double cut tungsten carbide burs can be used at slower speeds, and produce smaller chips. The double cut (DC) has two cutting edges (the edges cross each other like an X). They remove harder material more rapidly than single cut burs, and offer more operator control. Depending upon the shape and size of the bur you choose, some will leave a very smooth surface on your material, while others will leave a less smooth surface but might remove more material. Non-ferrous tungsten carbide burs are exactly what they sound like, is a medium tough cut tool , The tough cut enables a faster, splinter-free cutting in weld and alloy casting. They are specialized burs designed for using with non-ferrous material, primarily on aluminum, non-ferrous materials, soft steel, reinforced plastics, as well as additional soft materials which is a very chunky material. This is a great tool for all metal working people. It has a wide range of applications. Tungsten carbide burs come in different types, such as cylindrical, ball-shaped, oval, round nose tree, pointed tree, flame, 60-degree cone, 90-degree cone, tapered cone, or inverted cone, tungsten tungsten carbide burs and long shank tungsten carbide burs. If you have a piece of material with rough edges you would use a bur to remove those edges. . Our -CPM has valuable information you can use when choosing your tungsten carbide burs.
