Cylinder Turboburs (1/16" shanks)

The Basics

• Cylinder Burs can be used like a flat file. They can remove large amounts of material quickly. Large cylinder burs are useful for grinding the insides of ring shanks to increase their size.
• Carbide Steel burs maintain their sharpness longer than any other steel. They are more brittle than carbon steel and hss and are more likely to break or chip if mishandled.
• 1/16" dia. turboburs are much smaller than the standard 3/32" tools most used by jewelers. They are used primarily with high speed handpieces and air grinders.
