Tungsten carbide burrs offer a means of de-burring, shaping and chamferring inside recesses using die grinders. We offer a range of shapes to facilitate different tasks. We also offer 2 grades to suit different metals. Most are 'Hard Metal' grade, ideal for steel, stainless steel and hard alloys. There is also a smaller selection of 'Non-Ferrous' grade which are better for bronze, aluminium alloys and brass. They are also effective on wood and can be a useful aid to carving.
Most of our selection has 6mm spindles to suit the most popular collet size in die-grinders. There is a small selection available with 3mm and 8mm spindles.
