A selection of carbide burrs Burrs are small cutters used in die grinders, rotary tools or dentists drills. The name may be considered appropriate when their small sized head (3mm diameter shaft) is compared to that of a burr seed. A handheld power tool with a variety of rotating accessory bits and attachments that can be used for cutting, carving, sanding, polishing and many other applications. ...

A burr is a seed or type of fruiting body, borne by certain plants, in which the seeds bear hooks or teeth which attach themselves to fur or clothing of passing animals or people. ...
To maintain the correct surface speed and cutting conditions they are rotated at the highest speed possible, commensurate with their size and construction. The cutters shown in the image are made from tungsten carbide which allows them to run at higher speeds, than similar HSS cutters, yet still maintain their cutting edges. Tungsten carbide, WC or W2C, is a chemical compound containing tungsten and carbon similar to titanium carbide. ...
