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. Also available with rounded ends.
• Carbide Steel burs and drills are the most durable and most expensive. They maintain sharp edges longer, even when used at high speeds.
• 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.
