SA-1 cylinder shape burrs are great for interior contour work and deburring. Due to the extreme hardness of this tungsten carbide, technology-not only on far more demanding jobs than HSS (High-Speed Steel). These carbide burrs are constructed of tungsten carbide burr die grinder bits and will start to soften at higher temperatures, so carbide is obviously the best choice for long-term performance.
Double cut or Cross cut carbide burrs are usually used on ferrous and non-ferrous metals, soft steel, and also for all non-metal materials for example stone, plastics, hard wood, and ceramic. Double cut burrs will leave a somewhat smoother finish than single cut as a result of producing smaller chips as they cut away the fabric. Use for medium stock removal, deburring, finishing, and cleaning. A double-cut carbide burr is among the most popular cut and will see you through most applications.
Cut – Double Cut
Max RPM – 70,000, however it’s uncommon to need a lot more than 35,000 RPM.
Machines Used On:
Die Grinders and hand-held pneumatic grinders
Application:
Ferrous Materials – Cast Iron, Steel, Stainless, Steel, Titanium, Nickel, Wrought Iron
Non-Ferrous Materials – Copper
Other Materials – Fiberglass, Plastic, Hard Rubber, Wood, Stone
Cylinder Shape burrs are perfect for interior contour work like peripheral and face milling.
Safety Tips & Techniques:
Tool speed is determined with the material you use your burr on. If you might be experiencing chipping, you are most likely operating at too high of speed for your application. Start with a slower speed while increasing during this process unless you achieve the the best results
Apply light pressure and allow the tool carry out the work. Bearing documented on the tool will result in reduced tool life and a dull burr.
Always wear proper PPE to include (although not tied to) safety glasses, hearing protection, respirator, and work gloves. Keep all guards available on your own machine.
Avoid use on electrical power drills; the slower speeds may result in chipping of one’s workpiece.
