Achieve clean wax carving, friction-free chip evacuation, and vibration-free rotary detailing with authentic NIQUA SUPER Q® Wax Burs Series “171C”. Precision-engineered to strict Swiss standards from high-grade tool steel, this specialized rotary carving bur is developed specifically for professional goldsmiths, model makers, lost-wax casting ateliers, and jewelry designers.
Featuring an inverted cone / double-taper geometry with widely spaced, razor-sharp spiral flutes, the Series “171C” is tailored specifically for the unique physical properties of modeling wax. The deep flute gullets cleanly shave and expel wax ribbons without frictional overheating, preventing material adhesion, gumming, or tearing on delicate wax walls. Fitted with a standardized 2.35 mm (3/32”) shank, it integrates seamlessly into standard jewelry micromotors, flexible shaft handpieces, and quick-change bench systems across diameters of 1.80 mm, 2.30 mm, 3.10 mm, and 5.00 mm.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Specialized Wax-Cutting Geometry: Double-taper inverted cone profile allows precise undercut carving, hollow-out clearing, and delicate seat profiling.
-
Anti-Adhesion Chip Evacuation: Wide, polished chip gullets prevent melted wax from adhering to the cutting edges, ensuring clean, continuous slicing.
-
Hardened High-Grade Tool Steel: Tough tool steel core ensures edge sharpness and long service life under repetitive rotary carving passes.
-
Smooth, Low-Vibration Operation: Concentric rotary tracking prevents handpiece chatter, protecting thin wax prongs and fragile prototype sections from breaking.
-
Swiss Precision Quality: Built under strict Swiss manufacturing standards to ensure dimensional consistency across all head sizes.
-
Standard 2.35 mm (3/32”) Shank: Precision ground to ensure universal compatibility with standard bench micromotors, rotary handpieces, and flex shaft systems.
