Which Speed/RPM Should One Choose for Carbide Burrs?
Burr speed recommendations
The speed or RPM you choose for carbide burrs in your handpiece may depend on various factors. The type of material, for example, has a significant influence in determining the speed. In truth, we have different materials and don’t have the same qualities.
When grinding hard materials like hardened steel and the rest, it can help if you use a higher speed. Otherwise, soft materials such as aluminum will require a low rate because an extremely high speed can damage the material.
Also, carbide burrs come in diversified shapes and sizes. And each shape or size can operate perfectly within a specific speed level.
For example, carbide burrs with large head diameters would need a low speed when using them. In practice, the user maintains complete control while using the burr to do projects.
However, it would help increase the speed level when using carbide burrs with small head diameters. Consequently, the miniature size version can rotate at extreme speed levels without losing total control of the tool.
Manufacturers provide a specific range of speeds suitable for different sizes and shapes of carbide burrs. And the approximate rate may appear as indicated in the table below:
No | Burr Size | RPM |
1 | 2.0 mm | 17 000 – 26 000 |
2 | 3.0 mm | 17 000 – 26 000 |
3 | 6.0 mm | 11 000 – 16 500 |
4 | 13.0 mm | 8 000 – 12 000 |
5 | 16.0 mm | 7 650 – 11 500 |
But, we can safely say that your overall speed should not exceed 35 000 RPM.
Important note: While using the burrs, you may experience chipping. That may mean a light speed.
However, you can ideally start cutting slowly and increase along the way. In principle, recommended high rates may prevent clogging the flutes of carbide burrs..
Different diameter carbide burrs
What Amount of Pressure Should You Apply with Carbide Burrs?
With carbide burrs, only apply the slightest pressure when cutting materials and allow the burr to perform its work.
In essence, carbide is a rigid material and significantly sharp. And, cutting tools made from carbide, such as burrs, have super sharp edges.
The sharp flutes of carbide burrs can quickly cut all materials without putting much pressure on the workpiece.
Otherwise, when you put more pressure, it causes the cutting edges of the burr to chip or smooth rapidly. Moreover, you might make uneven cuts on the material.
Are Carbide Burrs Harder Than High-Speed Steel (HSS)?
Yes.
Manufacturers usually machine ground excellent quality carbide burrs from specially selected grade carbide.
In truth, carbide material has a remarkable rigidity of twenty times more than HSS. In addition, it is the second-hardest material on earth after diamond.
Because of the extreme rigidity of tungsten carbide compounds, you can use the tools on more demanding tasks.
Consequently, tungsten carbide burrs can perform better than HSS, including higher temperatures. That means you can continue to run them even in hotter conditions for longer.
With HSS burrs, they soften quickly at higher temperatures. Therefore, carbide burrs have the upper hand in terms of long applications.
Carbide burrs VS HSS burrs
What Are the Benefits of Using Carbide Burrs?

Consequently, prolonged stillness can significantly affect its digging and jabbing abilities. As a result, it might cause roughness to the material and leave unsightly marks.
Also, when you keep the carbide burr in a continuous motion, you can quickly achieve better results. In particular, manufacturers make carbide burrs with high precision.
Therefore, in addition to super-sharp blade-like flutes, the burr provides accurate results with your different projects.
While using carbide burrs, you can end with an “upstroke” to generate a smoother finish with your workpiece. In addition, you can quickly de-clog carbide burrs when you use them on soft cast iron.
What are the Differences Between Carbide Burrs and Countersink?
A countersink refers to a cutting tool designed from carbide, high-speed steel, diamond, and cobalt steel.
Moreover, it has the shape of a cone. Therefore, you can use a countersink cutter to cut conical holes or chamfering inner holes. In addition, you can use a countersink to enlarge the rim of a model hole.
A countersink may perfectly process materials like wood, metal, plastics, etc. Moreover, it comes in a fluted design to clean and accurate cuts on different workpieces.
A countersink can also help you remove burrs left on material after tapping or drilling operation. Therefore, it helps enhance the smooth finish of your product while removing hazardous pointed edges.
Applications of countersink
The principal geometry of a countersink may comfortably suit plunging and milling applications. That implies countersinks have overlapping forms for different functions. Moreover, sometimes we may call it a chamfering endmill with an angled tip.
Whatever the name you give to the cutter, a countersink provides plunging and traversing applications. In principle, plunging applications refer to conical chamfering, while traversing applications intersect two planes.
Like carbide burrs, you may use a countersink in different handpieces. For example, a countersink can fit in milling machines, drill presses, lathes, drills, etc.
More so, we have fluted countersinks that provide heavy chamfering at the beginning of a drilled hole.
Manufacturers can fashion countersinks in different engagement angles. So, for instance, we have countersinks in 60°, 82°, 90°, 100°, 110°, 120°, 130°, 140°, and more. And you can find them in English or metric standards.
Unlike carbide burrs, a countersink cutter has large flutes for bulk chip removal. Otherwise, it provides the same powerful cutting discharge as carbide burrs.
Carbide burrs also provide powerful cutting discharge but have very smooth cutting than countersinks.
Nonetheless, you can use countersinks and carbide burrs in aluminum alloy, stainless steel, copper, etc.
Applications of carbide burrs
Can You Sharpen Carbide Burrs?
No.
You don’t need to sharpen carbide. Moreover, we don’t have tools that can sharpen the flutes of the burrs. So, in principle, developers make carbide burrs with an extraordinarily long life.
In addition, the tool has a unique design from a very rigid material, tungsten carbide. As mentioned, tungsten carbide has optimum strength than high-speed steel.
Therefore, it has the best longevity. As a result, it may offer the best performance for several months or years before you find replacements.
However, it matters how you use it and the intensity of the application. For instance, if you use carbide burrs occasionally, it may take a year or more before they go blunt. However, if you use the burrs daily, you may replace them after four or several months.
In addition, using carbide burrs for their specific applications can make them retain their strong cutting power. Also, using the burrs on the recommended materials might maintain their sharp edges.
Also, if you use the correct technique when grinding, you can have the best performance of carbide burrs. In addition, you can achieve increased longevity while retaining its sharpness.
