arbide Burs
p
rovide very fast and
aggressive material removal. Made for use on soft
a
nd hard woods, diestone, and plastics (do not use
Typhoon burs on metal). They have aligned teeth that
leave a smoother finish than other types of non-flut-
ed tungsten carbide burs. Professional Jeweler’s
Burs
with 2.35mm (3/32″) shanks are for jewelry
making applications.
Drills
Step Drills are used to drill wood, precious metals,
mild steel, bone, and mother of pearl.
Diamond
Coated Twist Drills
, made of wire gauge steel with
diamond coating, are used to drill extremely fine
holes in stone, ceramics, tile, glass, and hard metals.
Plated and Sintered
Diamond Points and Discs
are used to remove stock from extremely hard
materials such as tungsten and tantalum carbide
cutting tools, dies and molds, broaches, and for
grinding and pre-polishing synthetic jewels and
precious metals, fiberglass and reinforced plastics,
PVC and ceramics. Sintered diamonds last far longer
than plated diamonds and can be re-sharpened as
desired with a wet dressing stone to expose new
diamond particles.
Sanding Drums, Bands, Discs,
Cartridge Rolls and Flap Wheels
These are used for removing rust, smoothing rough
surfaces and for sanding jobs on wood, plastic and
metal. (Avoid using too much pressure which will
cause clogging or a build-up on the work surface.)
For best results, use medium speeds for coarser grits
and larger diameters. Use higher speeds for finishing
work or with smaller sizes. Also available are various
shapes of 1
″ Cartridge Rolls and Flap Wheels for
mounting on mandrels
Unique 3M Ceramic Purple
Coated Abrasive Bands and Discs
contain patented
Cubitron
TM
ceramic aluminum oxide mineral that
sharpens itself with use. They last 2 to 4 times longer
than traditional aluminum oxide discs and remove
material faster with less heat and loading.
Cotton or Felt Bobs and Buffs
Solid Felt Buffs or Bobs are used in combination
with gritty or smooth compounds for a variety of
buffi
ng and polishing operations on plastic, wood,
and metal. They vary in shape and come in three
hardnesses — medium, hard, and rock hard.
Loosely-stitched Soft Cotton Buffs are used for
delicate work on precious metal and during polishing
operations. Generally use high speeds for cutting
down
and buffing. Medium speeds are used for
more delicate, precise work and for polishing.
Brushes
Miniature Power Brushes are generally used on
metal surfaces and hard-to-reach areas. They are
ideal for deburring, surface finishing, edge blending,
roughening to create a good bonding surface, and
general cleaning. Use high speeds for cleaning and
deburring. Medium speeds are needed when clean-
ing hard-to-reach areas and edge blending.
Unique
Scotch-Brite
T
M
Radial Bristle Discs from 3M have
thin flexible bristles that get into hard to reach areas
on flat and curved surfaces. Use on metal, acrylic,
plaster, ceramics and wood without the need for
compounds. They can sand, smooth, polish, or
burnish metal, plastic, or wood to a bright finish.
Friction Grip Burs and Points
Hard to find Carbide burs and diamond coated
points with 1/16
″ (1.6mm) shanks for use in high
speed air turbines and Foredom collet handpieces
with 1/16
″ (1.6mm) collets. These accessories can
also be used with adapters in micromotors.
Compounds
Foredom has seven different compounds.
In addition to Emery, Tripoli, and Red and White
Rouges, there is
unique Platinum Blue for
pre-polishing and cutting down platinum and other
metals, and for final polishing
unique Platinum
White
(8000 grit) that produces a deep luster on
platinum, other metals, and acrylics.
Carnauba is
the hardest wax available. It produces a high luster
on wood and painted surfaces.

Foredom has four rotating bur holders and two
small holders with covers. Two of the rotating
models have center cups for holding small tools
such as files and screwdrivers. A bur holder is the
perfect companion product for your collection of
burs, drill bits, and other accessories of various
size shanks.
