Bigger Dremel Bits

[just.wing.it]

Just got some larger bits for my Dremel tool.
They're much chunkier than the ones that Dremel sells, hopefully they're not too chunky...
Any bigger than this, and I need a die grinder.

They are made in China, and are supposed to be Tungsten Carbide, I'll let you know how they hold up, when I get around to using them.

But be careful with these cheap sets. 33000 RPM and failed bit is nothing funny.

What's happens when these fail?

What's happens when these fail?

Typically the head breaks off and hopefully flies across the room...and not into someones face.

Or the shaft will bend and unbalance the dremel at which point you throw the damn thing down as it's shaking too much to turn it off and turn off the power...hint use a foot pedal power switch.

You hope that your safety glasses are up to par....

Indeed, I think the key is to let the tool do the work.
When you start forcing it, is when they break.
True for any power tool.

Ok, so, did you use these? I’m weighing getting bits for my Dremel or getting a die grinder.

I have not used them yet, sorry.

 

[willhopper]

Ok, keep us posted!

Uh -- I have a set of these, and I have used them -- very carefully. So far I've had no trouble with them, and all of my external body features are intact.
