Burr Selection Table
Standard length commercial burrs are used with FDB products. The
length of these tools is typically around 2 inches for 1/4” shank di-
ameter burrs [50mm for 6mm diameter]. Longer shank burrs are
available from industrial suppliers and will appear in their catalogs
with descriptions such as “long” or “extended” shank. Their use is
to be avoided. Using extended or long shank burrs in the FDB will
place higher loads and vibrations on the motor bearings resulting
in reduced motor life. Bearing failure caused by the use of extend-
ed shank burrs is not covered under warranty.
CAUTION
Long shank tools can lead to premature failure of the air motor
and is not covered under warranty.
• DO NOT use long or extended shank burrs with the FDB.
• Use standard length commercial burrs with the FDB.
SCHUNK can provide guidance in burr selection, however, only ex-
perimentation will yield the results desired. The following table is
presented to assist in burr selection.
This following table is not comprehensive, but includes many com-
mon burr types and burrs recommended for particular applications.
