The taper (cone) round head is the all-purpose lab contouring shape: the cone reaches into interdental areas and around clasps while the rounded tip avoids gouging. The 2.3 mm head is a mid-size that handles general contouring of dentures, frameworks and models. As a medium crosscut cutter it does the main shaping work between bulk reduction and finishing.
