SA-3 cylinder shape burrs are good for interior contour work and deburring. Because of the extreme hardness with this tungsten carbide, quite a few on much more demanding jobs than HSS (High-Speed Steel).
Double cut or Cross cut carbide burrs are usually used on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, soft steel, and for all non-metal materials such as stone, plastics, wood, and ceramic. Double cut burrs leaves a rather smoother finish than single cut as a result of producing smaller chips because they cut away the material. Use for medium stock removal, deburring, finishing, and cleaning. A double-cut carbide burr is easily the most popular cut and will help you through most applications.
Machines Suited for:
Die Grinders and hand-held pneumatic grinders
Application:
Ferrous Materials – Surefire, Steel, Stainless, Steel, Titanium, Nickel, Wrought Iron
Non-Ferrous Materials – Copper
Many other materials – Fiberglass, Plastic, Hard Rubber, Wood, Stone
Cylinder Shape burrs are ideal for interior contour work like peripheral and face milling.
Safety Tips & Techniques:
Tool speed is determined with the material you’re using your burr on. If you are experiencing chipping, you are most probably operating at too much of speed for your application. Start using a slower speed and increase during this process until you achieve the greatest results
Apply light pressure and allow tool do the work. Bearing down on the tool will result in reduced tool life along with a dull burr.
Always wear proper PPE to include (and not limited by) safety glasses, hearing protection, respirator, and work gloves. Keep all guards set up on your machine.
Avoid use on electricity drills; the slower speeds may lead to chipping of your respective workpiece.
