OVERVIEW

Precision Engineered for Non-Ferrous Applications

The Walter 01V060 Carbide Burr (Shape SC-1) represents the pinnacle of rotary file technology, specifically engineered for the demanding task of processing non-ferrous metals. Manufactured from the finest quality tungsten carbide, this tool is designed to deliver exceptional durability and wear resistance even under high-speed operation. The SC-1 geometry—a cylindrical shape with a radius end—provides versatility for both surface milling and contouring inside corners or curved surfaces.

A critical challenge in grinding aluminum and other soft non-ferrous alloys is material loading, where the soft metal adheres to the cutting flutes, rendering the tool ineffective. This Walter burr addresses that issue with a specialized "NF" (Non-Ferrous) cut pattern. This open structure allows for rapid chip evacuation, ensuring the flutes remain clear and the cutting action remains aggressive throughout the operation. The result is a consistent material removal rate without the downtime associated with cleaning clogged tools.

Furthermore, Walter Surface Technologies places a heavy emphasis on concentricity and balance. The 01V060 is precision-ground to ensure the head and shank are perfectly aligned. This reduces runout and vibration, which not only protects the bearings of your pneumatic or electric die grinder but also reduces operator fatigue during extended use. By minimizing chatter, the burr produces a superior surface finish, often reducing the need for subsequent sanding or polishing steps. For industrial MRO professionals seeking reliability and efficiency in aluminum fabrication, this carbide burr is an essential component of the abrasive toolkit.

FAQ

NF stands for 'Non-Ferrous'. This indicates the cut pattern is specifically designed with wider flutes to prevent clogging when grinding soft metals like aluminum, copper, or brass.

While tungsten carbide is hard enough to cut steel, the NF geometry is optimized for soft metals. Using it on hard steel may result in tooth chipping or excessive vibration. It is best to use a double-cut burr for ferrous metals.

The SC-1 shape is a cylinder with a radius (rounded) end. This allows for grinding on both the side of the cylinder and the rounded tip, making it useful for contoured surfaces and corners.

You will need a die grinder (air or electric) with a collet that matches the shank size of the burr (typically 1/4 inch for this size class).

A balanced burr ensures concentric rotation, which minimizes vibration. This protects the die grinder's bearings, improves the surface finish of the workpiece, and reduces operator fatigue/risk of injury.

No, that is exactly what it is designed to prevent. The open flute design allows the aluminum chips to clear out easily, preventing the 'loading' that happens with standard metal burrs.

Yes, the Non-Ferrous cut is also excellent for hard plastics and wood, as these materials also tend to clog standard fine-tooth burrs.

Don't push too hard—let the speed of the tool do the work. pushing too hard can slow down the RPM and cause the tool to catch or chip. Keep the tool moving to avoid digging in.
