FAQ

What does FG mean on a bur? Friction grip — a 1.6 mm smooth shank held by friction in high-speed turbine handpiece chucks.

Can an FG bur be used in a contra-angle? Only in FG-specific contra-angles (speed-increasing handpieces); standard latch-type contra-angles take RA shanks instead.

Where are these burs made? Every instrument in this collection is manufactured by Busch & Co. in Engelskirchen, Germany — an ISO 13485-certified specialist in rotary precision instruments since 1905 — and ships fast from our US warehouse.
