Supra Industries Tungsten carbide burrs are versatile rotary tools valued for their hardness and cutting ability. They are essential for shaping, smoothing and removing material from a wide variety of workpieces. Their effectiveness has made them a standard tool in several industries where precision and durability are a must.

Here are five key applications where tungsten carbide burrs are indispensable:

• Metalworking and Deburring: After a part is machined, cast, or stamped, it often has sharp edges and burrs that need to be removed. Tungsten carbide burrs are perfect for this job. They come in many shapes and sizes, allowing you to reach tight spots and create a smooth, safe edge. This is a fundamental step in finishing metal parts for both appearance and function.
• Weld Preparation and Finishing: In fabrication, burrs are used before welding to create beveled edges or grooves that help ensure a strong connection. After welding, they are used to remove excess weld material, known as the weld bead and to smooth the surface for a clean finish.
• Mold and Die Making: Creating and maintaining molds and dies requires a high degree of detail. Tungsten carbide burrs are used to shape cavities, make fine adjustments and polish surfaces to ensure that the final molded parts are accurate and have a high-quality finish.
• Aerospace Industry: The aerospace sector uses these burrs for many detailed tasks on tough materials. This includes deburring critical components and performing intricate shaping and finishing operations where accuracy and material integrity are vital for flight safety and performance.
• Automotive Industry: From shaping engine ports to removing excess material from cast parts, tungsten carbide burrs are a go-to tool. They help create high-quality components and are used for everything from metal to plastic finishing.
