Carbide burrs are tools useful for deburring most hard materials like ceramics, stone, steel, aluminum, plastics and hardwood. They feature precision, and can also be employed in cutting, shaping, grinding and chamfering hard materials.
Carbide burrs works extremely well on a variety of materials such as metals (including Steel aluminum and cast iron) and all types of wood. Technology-not only on acrylics, fiberglass and plastics too. Carbide burrs can last for a long time without chipping or breaking in order that it’s so great for their services on soft metals like gold,platinum and silver.
Do you know the Benefits of Carbide Burrs In contrast to HSS Burrs?
In comparison with HSS, Carbide Burrs are much harder.
The Tungsten Carbide is incredibly hard to be able to provide in wider variety of work than HSS (High Speed Steel).
HSS can’t perform as well as carbide burrs when they’re at temperature. Carbide Burrs can bear hotness and will run for time.
Carbide won’t soften at hot temperature but HSS burrs is opposite. There’s no question that carbide is a better choice.
Using Carbide Burs:
For more stability, insert the accessory bit in the tool and then back out slightly before tightening around the collet nut or keyless chuck.
Avoid the use of these for drilling holes or enlarging holes which can be less than twice the diameter of the cutter. The tungsten carbide surface can easily catch the medial side of the hole and break the part.
Use higher speeds for hardwoods, slower speeds for metals and slow speeds for plastics (to stop melting at contact point).
Start with a lower speed. Then increase on the speed which gives probably the most favourable results.
Do not apply excessive pressure. It might slow up the spindle and chip cutting edges. Let the bur perform cutting.
Utilize sides of the cutter for effective cutting. The tip cuts poorly and may break pressurized.
Never in-capsulate the bur from the cut. If chattering occurs, increase speed.
When using aluminium and magnesium, consider some kind of lubricant, wax or tallow, since it can help stop the flutes from loading or packing.
Carbide burs, if used the right way, will outperform HSS burs by 50
