Why the 14-Degree Cutting Angle Makes a Difference
The SL-104’s 14-degree angle isn’t just a number—it’s what helps the burr quickly and cleanly remove material without clogging up. Imagine using a scoop that's perfectly angled to shave off just the right amount without dragging along sticky bits. This angle optimizes cutting action on soft metals like aluminum, reducing heat build-up and keeping your work smooth and chip-free.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Ensure your rotary tool matches the 1/4 inch shank diameter for a secure fit.
- Insert the burr firmly into the collet to prevent wobbling during use.
- Set the rotary speed according to aluminum cutting recommendations—usually moderate to high RPM.
- Wear protective eyewear and gloves before starting for safety.
- Test on a scrap piece before applying to your workpiece.
Keeping It Going
- Regularly clean the burr to remove accumulated chips and debris.
- Use a wire brush or special cleaning stick after each session to maintain cutting performance.
- Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion or damage.
- Check for signs of wear or dull edges and replace when cutting efficiency drops.
- Avoid excessive pressure during use to extend burr life and ensure smooth operation.
