Large single/aluminium cut carbide metal burrs have a single right cut spiral flute and are used with cast iron, steel, copper, brass, and other ferrous materials such as aluminium. Metal burrs come in either a single/aluminium ( Alumin Range Burrs) cut, or a double/diamond cut. Where tungsten carbide burrs can be used on any metal, there are different cuts available to suit different metals, see below. Great for deburring, shaping, smoothing welds, enlarging holes, carving and finishing.Tungsten carbide burrs set will last longer and perform better under higher temperatures. What's more, HSS has less tolerance for heat and will start to soften under high temperatures. Due to their extreme hardness they can be used on much more demanding jobs and won't wear out, unlike HSS. Tungsten carbide burrs are preferred when working with metal. Generally a metal burr is made from either Tungsten Carbide or High Strength Steel (HSS). Plastic, Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic (CRP), Glass Fibre Reinforced Plastic (GRP)ĭifferent cuts of carbide burrs will be best suited to certain materials, see the next point below to find out about the different cuts.When used on soft metals such as gold, platinum and silver, carbide burrs are ideal as they will last a long time with no chipping or breaking. Metals including steel, aluminum and cast iron, all types of wood, acrylics, fibreglass and plastics. What material can Carbide Burrs be used on?Ĭarbide burrs can be used on many materials. They’re also used in a variety of industries including welding, tool making, engineering, woodworking, jewelry making, aerospace, automotive, dental, metal sculpting, and many more! Carbide burrs are typically used in die grinders, rotary tools, high speed engravers, dremels, pendant drills, and flexible shaft grinders. Applying too much pressure can result in shortening the life of your burr, in addition to potential chipping/eroding of the flutes.Ĭarbide burrs are widely used for metalworking, chamfering, casting, deburring, and grinding. Allow the tool do the work when using burrs, apply minimum pressure. Carbide burrs are ideal on soft metals such as silver, gold and platinum because they resist chipping or breaking and have a long tool life. Carbide burrs are used on a variety of materials including aluminum, metals, steel, cast iron, fiberglass, wood, acrylics, and plastics. Tungsten Carbide Burrs are used for cutting, grinding, deburring, removal of sharp edges, and shaping the workpiece.
