The ball bur is one of the most important standard tools in goldsmithing and is indispensable in almost every working step. Whether preparing settings, working out precise seats or pre-drilling – a high-quality ball bur largely determines precision, surface quality and efficiency.
The NIQUA SUPER Q® ball bur “23” was developed especially for these requirements and offers maximum control when working with gold, silver and non-ferrous metals.
The precisely ground ball head produces an even, clean cut, which enables the highest accuracy, particularly in setting work. At the same time, the optimised geometry of the bur ensures efficient chip removal and reduces the risk of clogging – a decisive advantage with soft precious metals.
Made from high-quality, hardened tool steel, the ball bur impresses with an exceptionally long service life and consistent cutting performance in daily workshop use. This makes it the first choice for goldsmiths, gemstone setters and jewellery makers who have to rely on their tools.
The shank diameter of 2.35 mm guarantees compatibility with all common micromotors, handpieces and flex shaft motors and allows seamless integration into existing work processes.
