NeoBurr 3302 Blended Neck® Carbide
Following suit with the 5572, the section of the 3302 bur between the cutting head and the shank is blended, so there’s no reduction in neck width. This design, coupled with the removal of the weld joint, is said to increase the strength of the bur. The innovative design is engineered to remove any weak points in the bur’s neck that might otherwise cause breakage.
