We use die grinders with various carbide burrs every day in our welding and ironwork shop. Milwaukee M18 cordless die grinders with only quality carbide single cut and double cut carbide burrs from machine shop supply houses. They are an absolute must for any metal working applications, period! Many shape burrs to chose. Word of caution though, use them only in an area that is easy to clean up. These are the messiest tools you will ever use. The sharp metal shards they produce are razor sharp and go EVERYWHERE. Suit up appropriately to avoid trips to the ER. Still, one of the most valuable tools in our welding shop and on our trucks. Steel cuts wood, high speed steel cuts most steel, tungsten carbide cuts everything else. Put it in a high speed cordless die grinder, use it CLOKWISE only and go gently because they cut extremely fast. Best invention since cold beer. If possible, use these tools outside and not in the shop unless you have a special area, I am not kidding about those horrible sharp chips they produce at high speed and cover a wide area. Full face shield and clothes those hot chips can not stick into. Once, on a hot day, I used one while wearing a short sleeve shirt, cloth gloves instead of leather gloves and only small safety glasses to grind a weld out of the way. I may never be able to have an MRI because of that. I am no Rookie at this with 53 years of experience, heed this advice. You will love these tools.
I wonder if i can use these cheap bits to grind with corded die grinder. I need to grind bolt heat off exhaust flange, but the area is inaccessible for angle grinder, so i wonder if this would do the trick? Please respond .
My only problem with burrs are that you need a fairly beefy grinder to run them effectively, 3/4 horse or better, and more importantly to me the slivers are the absolute worst things in the workshop and I will go to nearly any length to avoid using them for that reason. Glitter from hell gets absolutely everywhere and if you've get any on a lifting sling you might as well throw the damn thing away because you will be picking slivers out of your hands every time you so much as think about picking it up.
I do nearly all my grinding outdoors and if I want to clear the air around me of rust, dust and paint chips I use an old bounce house fan since they're easy to aim. I get good results with small grinders but my favorite is using a steel Jacobs chuck drilled and tapped (on a lathe for concentricity) to 5/8"-11 which fits my angle grinders. Beats carrying my Milwaukee 5196 beast and works a treat.
I have always used them with my roto zip but I just had one bend as soon as I turned the tool on I'm not sure if it was a defective bit or defective user I'm terrible with tools that take a gentle touch so I only use them on stuff that have a lot of room for mistakes because they will burn through hard metal real quick
Well they are Smarter it makes sense they make better things so good where ppl have to not say the truth even ppl jst lie say the opposite but thats how many make their money they buy and Re-Sale they will even re-Logo items like snap-on did
I have heard China makes decent carbide I mean I guess if it is carbide and not like high carbon steel or something it kinda has to be of decent quality
What was that all around that bung and the base metal was that supposed to be a weld look more like caulk ing no on second thought i can lat beter beads with caulk than that what was that ?! No wonder the die grinder and bur are your best friends !!!

Purchased a bur off of the Cornwell truck. Chipped it first time using it. Perhaps you might enjoy following along as I get my late father's 1958 Plymouth Suburban back on the road. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7oprNhUVgfA.html
