3mm Ball-Nose Rotary Burr, 38mm Length, Cross-Cut Flute Pattern
Overview
This compact rotary burr delivers precision finishing for internal corners, radii, and complex contours—a workhorse for tool production shops and precision machining operations. The cross-cut flute pattern removes material efficiently while leaving a smooth, finished surface. The tapered shank with machined flat faces ensures secure collet grip without slippage, making it reliable for detailed work where accuracy matters.
For shops requiring a full range of burr sizes, consider pairing this with larger 4mm and 6mm ball-nose options to handle varied finishing tasks across your product line.
Key Features
