Saint-Gobain Abrasives (Worcester, MA) has introduced a new line of Norton Carbide Burrs designed for surface removal on demanding production runs with less changeovers. The hardness of a tungsten carbide substrate, stronger tooth formulation due to a decreased tooth wedge angle and numerous cutting edges, all provide the new Norton Double-Cut Carbide Burrs with a significantly extended life and better stock removal performance. The Norton Double-Cut Carbide Burrs are ideal for efficiently removing surface stock and weld splatter, deburring and chamfering applications, along with medium to light cleaning. Specially designed tool geometries are ideally suited to meet the growing demands for stainless steel, steel, cast steel and composites applications. The new burrs perform well at higher temperatures and can be used longer than high-speed steel tools.
