Choosing a Grit

Busch marks grit with a colored ring and a prefix on the figure number, so you can order the exact 811 you need:

  • Super Coarse (black ring): Busch No. 5811 for fast bulk removal
  • Medium (standard): Busch No. 811 for everyday preparation

Sizes and Shanks

The three-digit size code is the head diameter in tenths of a millimeter (for example, 012 = 1.2 mm).

  • FG (friction grip, 1.6 mm shank for the high-speed handpiece)

See the Busch Bur Size Chart for full dimensions and the Dental Bur Speed Chart for maximum recommended speeds.

Clinical Use

  • Occlusal reduction: efficient, even reduction of occlusal surfaces in crown preparations.
  • Lingual contouring: shaping lingual and palatal surfaces of anterior teeth.
  • Bulk reduction: removing material quickly where a broad, rounded profile is needed.

Care and Reconditioning

Busch rotary instruments are reusable: clean, disinfect and sterilize them between patients according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and replace a bur once it dulls or shows damage. Our Dental Bur Reprocessing & Sterilization Guide walks through the workflow for carbide, diamond and steel instruments.
