Busch Cool-Diamant Taper (Cone) Rounded Edge Bur | Busch No. CD 37 016 – FG | Pack of 6
The cool diamant diamond dental bur taper (cone) rounded edge from Busch & Co. GmbH is a precision-engineered rotary instrument designed for demanding restorative and prosthetic dental procedures. Featuring a taper (cone) shape with a rounded edge and medium grit diamond abrasive, this bur delivers controlled, efficient cutting while minimising heat generation at the preparation site.
Key Features
- Shape: Taper (Cone) with Rounded Edge — ideal for crown and cavity preparation
- Grit: Medium — balances cutting efficiency with surface finish quality
- Series: Cool-Diamant — engineered for reduced frictional heat during use
- Pack: Supplied as a pack of 6 burs (CD 37 016 FG)
- Origin: Made in Germany to stringent quality standards
Instrument Dimensions
| Head Ø | 1.6 mm (ISO size 016) |
|---|---|
| Shank | FG (Friction Grip) — 1.60 mm Ø, 19 mm overall length (ISO 314) |
Per ISO 6360, the size number is the maximum head diameter in tenths of a millimeter. See our Busch Bur Size Chart for the full size conversion table, shank codes, and color ring guide.
Clinical Applications
The cool diamant diamond dental bur taper (cone) rounded edge is suited for two primary clinical applications:
- Crown Preparation — precise tapering and margin definition for full and partial crowns
- Cavity/Fissure Preparation — accurate cavity outline and fissure extension in posterior and anterior teeth
The Cool-Diamant design philosophy prioritises patient comfort and instrument longevity by reducing heat build-up, which helps protect pulpal health during preparation. Each bur in this pack maintains consistent diamond particle distribution for repeatable clinical outcomes.
Why Choose This Bur?
As a German-manufactured instrument, the cool diamant diamond dental bur taper (cone) rounded edge reflects Busch & Co.'s long-standing commitment to precision and reliability. Clinicians who demand consistent geometry, dependable grit retention, and efficient cutting performance will find this bur a sound choice for everyday restorative workflows.
Independent Research: Test Winner at Innsbruck
In an independent laboratory study at the Medical University of Innsbruck, Busch’s COOL DIAMANT design achieved the highest cutting performance in both test series — outperforming same-shape, same-grit diamonds from up to ten competing manufacturers. Under standardized conditions (200,000 rpm turbine, constant 152 g load, 10–40 minutes of continuous cutting on 99.5% Al₂O₃ ceramic), the COOL DIAMANT instrument removed significantly more material than burs from Diatech, Edenta, Horico and Komet (p < 0.05), and in the second series the standard Busch diamond placed second only to its cooling-groove sibling. The authors concluded that instruments with cooling grooves deliver higher grinding performance and need replacing less often.
