Double-cut carbide bur sets have crossing left- and right-hand flutes to quickly remove stock from steel, stainless steel, and other high-strength ferrous metals while leaving a smoother finish than single-cut burs.

Single-cut carbide bur sets have parallel rows of right-hand spiral flutes to balance stock removal and finish. Single-cut burs are used in general applications to evacuate chips on most materials, including brass, copper, cast iron, and steel.

Aluminum-cut carbide bur sets have wide channels to provide better chip clearance than other cuts when machining soft materials such as aluminum, brass, and plastic.

Inox-cut carbide bur sets are designed for high stock removal and high-quality finish cuts on stainless steel without producing high heat that can cause annealing and workpiece discoloration.

Steel-cut carbide bur sets make aggressive cuts in steel and hardened steel. Large chips are removed quickly to keep surface temperatures low to reduce annealing that can cause workpiece discoloration.

Radius bur sets include burs that curve in at their center to create a smooth radius on metal edges and corners. The inverted curve grinds and blends internal and external chamfers. The cutting edges are made from carbide, which is a hard material that resists wear and limits heat production. Radius burs attach to rotary power tools such as die grinders, high-speed engravers, and pendant drills.

Combi burs sets include burs that have two shapes on a single bur to extend deburring capabilities to reduce the time it takes to change out burs for different applications. The cutting edges are made from carbide, which is a hard material that resists wear and limits heat production.
