Carbide Rotary Burrs for Metalworking
Persistools carbide rotary burrs are precision cutting tools designed for fast material removal, deburring, weld cleaning, edge preparation, contouring, and surface finishing.
The cutting heads are manufactured from solid tungsten carbide and are suitable for use with die grinders, pneumatic grinders, electric rotary tools, and other high-speed hand-held or CNC equipment.
Compared with conventional abrasive tools, carbide burrs remove material through defined cutting edges, providing efficient stock removal, better dimensional control, and long service life when used under suitable cutting conditions.
A wide range of head shapes, cut geometries, head diameters, and shank sizes is available to match different materials and machining requirements.
Multiple Cut Types
Different flute designs can be selected according to the workpiece material and required cutting behavior.
Single Cut
Provides controlled material removal and relatively smooth cutting. Commonly used for steel, cast iron, and general-purpose metalworking.
Double Cut
Creates smaller chips and provides faster stock removal with easier tool control. Suitable for deburring, weld removal, and general metal fabrication.
Aluminum Cut / Non-Ferrous Cut
Features wider flute spacing to improve chip evacuation and reduce loading when machining aluminum, copper, brass, plastics, and other non-ferrous materials.
Multiple Head Shapes
Carbide burrs are available in common shapes including:
- Cylindrical
- Cylindrical with end cut
- Ball nose cylindrical
- Ball
- Oval
- Tree with radius end
- Tree with pointed end
- Flame
- Cone
- Tapered radius

Different shapes allow the cutter to reach flat surfaces, curved profiles, narrow grooves, internal corners, chamfers, and difficult-to-access areas.
Typical Applications
Persistools carbide burrs are commonly used for:
- Deburring machined components
- Weld bead removal
- Edge preparation
- Grinding and shaping
- Die and mold finishing
- Porting and contour work
- Casting cleanup
- Surface blending
- Chamfering
- General metal repair and fabrication

Available metric and inch shank options make the burrs suitable for different markets, machines, and tool-holding systems.
Custom head shapes, flute geometries, carbide grades, dimensions, and packaging can also be supplied according to specific application requirements.
