Tungsten Bur for Soft Resin and Silicone – DLG
Référence: 5003201
Tungsten Dental Bur for Soft Resin and Silicone
A tungsten carbide bur designed for grinding soft resins and relining silicones without damaging them.
- Ideal for labs seeking clean, efficient adjustments with no rework.
- We recommend spinning the bur at full speed in a block of silicone formed during application.
- The bur heats up slightly, improving its cutting efficiency.
Bur Specially Designed for Soft Materials
This tungsten bur is dedicated to the grinding of soft resin and silicone used in the fabrication of dental prostheses. It stands out by its ability to work precisely on soft materials without tearing or marking the surface.
- Perfect for targeted corrections on soft prostheses.
- Controlled cutting and excellent tactile feedback at the bench.
- Smooth surface ready for finishing or polishing.
Reinforced Surface Treatment
Its surface treatment and hardening process ensure a prolonged lifespan, even under intensive use.
- Outstanding durability on soft relining resins.
- Perfect for grinding
Usage Recommendations
- Optimal speed: 20,000–30,000 rpm for efficient grinding without premature wear.
- Light pressure: let the bur do the work, do not force on the prosthesis.
- ISO: Reference ISO 500 104 275 160 060, compliant with international standards.
Laboratory Tips
To optimise cutting efficiency and extend the bur’s lifespan, follow this simple protocol:
- Create a small mound of silicone on the bench and allow it to harden.
- Spin the bur at full throttle for a few seconds inside this silicone mound.
- Proceed with prosthesis grinding: the bur cuts better and clogs less.
This routine enhances cutting performance and significantly increases bur longevity.

FAQ
Is this bur suitable for all soft resins?
Yes, it is designed for most soft relining resins used in removable prosthetics, as well as for relining silicones. It provides smooth grinding without material tearing.
Can I use it on hard acrylic or metal?
No, this bur is optimised for soft materials. For hard acrylic, composites, or metal alloys, use a dedicated tungsten bur with the appropriate denture.
How can I prevent clogging and extend its lifespan?
Follow the recommended speed, work with light pressure, and prepare the bur by spinning it in hardened silicone. This technique reduces clogging, enhances cutting performance, and extends tool longevity.
