CARBIDE BURRS (carbide rotary burrs)
Carbide burrs (carbide rotary burrs, rotary files) are a cutting tool used in a die grinder, spinning at high revs to grind away material, porting, or deburr work pieces. Generally they consist of a steel shank in popular standard sizes (1/8”, ¼”, 3mm, 6mm), held in the collet of a diegrinder. The carbide cutting head is sweated to the shank.
Many sizes and shapes are available, mostly common shapes throughout the various manufacturers. Quality of the carbide will also vary depending on manufacturer & price.
If you are seriously using carbide burrs and expect good life & performance, we strongly recommend the German “Karnasch” carbide burrs, giving at least 4 times the life of others.
We stock and sell a lot of these burrs and customers now specify that they want only “Karnasch” Carbide burrs.
