Typhoon Tapered Carving Bur – Fine Grit (KB14115)
Vendor: Foredom
SKU: FORE34
Product Description:
This 1/4" shank tapered bur is a powerhouse tool for carvers and technicians who need precision in tight spaces. Its unique pointed shape makes it the go-to choice for reaching into deep contours, refining detail, and smoothing out hard-to-reach areas where a standard cylinder bur can’t fit.
Why it stands out:
- The "Cool-Cut" Design: Featuring structurally aligned tungsten carbide teeth, this bur shears material away rather than grinding it. This prevents heat buildup and ensures the tool won’t clog, even on "gummy" materials like soft wood or acrylic.
- Built for Detail: The Fine Grit (Blue) is designed for general shaping. It leaves a remarkably smooth surface for a tool this aggressive, significantly reducing the amount of hand-sanding needed afterward.
- Heavy-Duty Durability: Engineered to outlast standard steel burs and sandpaper, these carbide points stay sharp through hours of heavy use on hardwoods, fiberglass, and die stone.
Product Specifications:
- Head Size: 5/16" Diameter x 1-1/2" Length
- Shank: 1/4" (Compatible with most heavy-duty rotary tools and flexible shaft machines)
- Maximum Speed: 25,000 RPM
- Best For: Hard/soft wood, taxidermy, dental lab materials, and fiberglass.
Maintenance Tip:
To keep it cutting like new, simply clean the teeth with a brass brush. Avoid steel brushes, as they can dull the specialized carbide points.
