FAQ

What is the difference between RA and FG burs?
RA (contra-angle) burs fit low-speed handpieces for controlled, lower-vibration work, while FG burs fit high-speed handpieces for faster cutting.

What does the blue color mean on this bur?
Blue indicates a medium-grit diamond coating under the ISO color-coding standard, suited to balanced cutting and finishing.

Can this bur be autoclaved and reused?
Yes, diamond burs can be autoclaved, but cutting efficiency drops with repeated use and sterilization cycles - replace once cutting feels sluggish.
