CARBIDE BURRS

Carbide burrs are metal cutting tools used for removing material from a metal work piece. The extreme hardness of carbide makes it possible to use carbide burrs on a variety of material from soft aluminum to hardened steel. Depending upon its application and materials on which they are used, carbide burrs can be classified into coarse cut, standard cut, fine cut, diamond cut, aluminum cut, chip breaker cut etc. Carbide burrs come in various sizes and shapes from different manufacturers making it possible to use them for a wide variety of metal cutting operations.

Types of Carbide Burrs

Carbide burrs can be classified according their shape and type of cut. Let's see the various shapes of carbide burrs available in the market today. The most commonly used shapes are cylindrical carbide burrs, cylindrical carbide burrs with cutting teeth at end, ball nose carbide burrs, ball shaped carbide burrs, conical carbide burrs, reverse taper carbide burrs, tree carbide burrs, oval shaped carbide burrs and taper carbide burrs. Each of these unique shapes are designed to remove material from various shaped profiles and surfaces. Carbide burrs can be used in precision hand grinders as well as milling machines.

Cylindrical Carbide Burrs

Cylindrical carbide burrs are one of the simplest and most widely used carbide burrs. See the picture of a cylindrical carbide burr with standard cut.
