Why the Double Cut Design Makes a Difference
The double cut means the burr combines right and left-handed flutes working together. Imagine sanding wood with both your hands simultaneously instead of just one—it smooths out the surface a lot faster and cleaner. This dual action creates a finer finish and reduces vibrations, letting you hold the grinder steady and work with confidence, even on tricky surfaces.
