Double-Cut vs Single-Cut Carbide Burs

Cut pattern changes how a carbide burr removes material, controls chips and finishes a surface.

Carbide Burs: selection checklist

• Use double cut for general steel deburring and controlled removal.
• Use non-ferrous single-cut patterns for softer materials when appropriate.
• Choose shape and shank after choosing the cut.

How to choose the right option

1. Confirm the job specification and machine interface.
2. Select the correct size, geometry and material.
3. Review the product details and related accessories before ordering.
