Description
#10 Round Diamond Bur
The #10 round diamond is great for sanding in wood and can even be used on metal or glass when larger lines are desired. With a diameter of 2.9mm, it is great for rounding objects and creating uniformity throughout your design. Use these diamond bits for etching in glass, metal, bone, antler, wood, and virtually any other material. Diamond burs will often give you a softer cut compared to carbides and can also be used for sanding.
High Speed, Friction Grip burs are for use in High Speed Rotary Tools such as the NSK Presto. They can also be used in other high speed pneumatic tools such as the GRS850, SCM XS400, Turbo 300, Ney Hurricane, Shofu Lab Z Air and any other that uses 1/16 shank friction grip burs.
Electric Micromotors will also accomodate these diamond burs as long as you are using a 1/16″ chuck or a chuck reducer.
Please keep in mind when using larger burs that they put more pressure on your tools. If you are using larger tools, this is rarely a concern. However, when using high speed tools with low torque, the user needs to be careful to use very light hand pressure in order to let the speed of the tool do the work and avoid premature wear on the tool.
How long will they last?
This depends on the pressure applied and how “heavy” your hand is and your application. Many wood carvers use worn diamond burs for sanding even after they’ve been “worn out”. It is very important when using high speed tools to allow the speed of the tool to do the work and not be too “heavy handed”.
