What this HP carbide bur is for
The HP700L High Quality Taper HP tungsten carbide bur is designed for dental laboratory trimming, shaping, and material reduction on acrylic, resin, plaster, models, and prosthetic workpieces.
- Cuts and contours laboratory materials with controlled removal.
- Supports denture, model, tray, and prosthetic adjustment at the bench.
- Helps technicians keep a stable cutting feel in HP straight handpieces.
- Best when longer edge retention and smoother bench control are important.
Choose the right HP carbide bur quality for lab cutting
For stronger cutting, steadier control, and longer service life on dental laboratory materials, High Quality is the better long-term choice.
