What to Look for in a Diamond Football Bur

Remember! Not all diamond burs are created equal. There are many different brands of diamond cutters that are produced all over the world.

If you are sanding or finishing, it might not be necessary to have the highest quality burs. However, if you are adding fine detail in wood or engraving hard surfaces where precision matters, be sure to order quality diamond burs. Higher quality burs will perform better and last longer than “cheap” burs.

One HUGE difference in Football diamonds is the tip. On cheaper football burs, you will notice the tip is rounded and not sharp.  The tip of these burs is used for adding hair to animal wood carvings. Our football diamond burs have a very fine point in order to accomplish this. You might notice that inferior diamond burs do not have a fine tip and therefore will not be able to do this.
