Dental Burr, Round Head, Size 14 (5)

The Eickemeyer Tungsten Carbide Round Bur (ISO 14, 1.4 mm) is perfect for precise dental work in small animals, such as cats and small dogs, or for finishing cavities in larger animals. Its tungsten carbide head provides exceptional sharpness for delicate procedures in high-speed handpieces or turbines. Supplied in packs of 5 for efficient practice use.

Usage Guidelines

To ensure optimal performance and prevent breakage in high-speed handpieces:

• Use with water cooling (min. 50 mL/min) to reduce heat and friction, preventing thermal damage and bur breakage.
• Operate at 100,000–300,000 RPM for cutting enamel or dentin in procedures like cavity preparation or tooth sectioning.
• Apply light, intermittent pressure to avoid stress on the brittle tungsten carbide shank.
• Use in FG-compatible high-speed handpieces
• Do not use without water cooling, as this causes overheating, tissue damage, and bur breakage.
• Do not use on hard cortical bone (e.g., mandible in large dogs); use specialized surgical burs instead.
• Avoid exceeding 300,000 RPM, as this causes vibration and shank failure.
• Do not use worn or damaged burs; replace if cutting efficiency decreases. Best practice is to replace after each use.
