01V016 - Walter SF-5 Non-Ferrous Carbide Burr for Aluminum

Premium Tungsten Carbide Burr for Non-Ferrous Applications

The Walter 01V016 Carbide Burr (Shape SF-5) is a precision-engineered rotary tool designed specifically for the unique challenges of grinding soft, non-ferrous metals. Manufactured from the finest grade of tungsten carbide, this burr offers exceptional hardness and wear resistance, ensuring it maintains its cutting edge even under heavy industrial use. The SF-5 shape, known as a "Tree with Radius End," provides excellent versatility, allowing operators to work on contoured surfaces, round out holes, and blend radii effectively.

What sets this burr apart is its "NF" (Non-Ferrous) cut pattern. Grinding aluminum and other soft alloys with standard burrs often leads to "loading" or clogging, where the material melts into the flutes, rendering the tool useless. The Walter NF cut features an open flute design with aggressive relief angles that eject chips rapidly. This prevents heat buildup and loading, allowing for continuous, high-speed material removal without interruption. It is the ideal choice for MRO professionals and fabricators working with aluminum, copper, brass, and plastics.

Precision manufacturing guarantees perfect concentricity, which is critical for minimizing vibration in high-speed die grinders. Reduced vibration not only protects the machine's bearings but also reduces operator fatigue and improves the surface finish of the workpiece. Whether you are enlarging holes, deburring castings, or finishing complex shapes, the Walter SF-5 NF burr delivers consistent, high-quality results.

Key Industrial Benefits

• Anti-Clogging Design: Specialized flute geometry prevents soft metals from loading up the cutting edges.
• Superior Balance: Machined to exacting tolerances to run true at high RPMs, protecting equipment and operators.
• Long Service Life: Premium tungsten carbide substrate outlasts high-speed steel and lower-grade carbides.
