Busch Cool-Diamant Flame Bur | Busch No. CD 61F 012 – Fine Grit – FG | Pack of 2
The cool diamant fine grit diamond dental bur from Busch & Co. GmbH is a precision-engineered rotary instrument designed for demanding dental procedures requiring controlled, refined material removal. This flame-shaped bur features a fine grit diamond coating, identified by a red ring, making it an ideal choice for clinicians who prioritize accuracy and surface quality in every preparation.
Product Overview
Part of the renowned Cool-Diamant series, this cool diamant fine grit diamond dental bur is engineered in Germany to the highest manufacturing standards. The flame geometry (Form 61F, diameter 012) provides excellent access and angulation for precise intraoral work, whether shaping, finishing, or refining hard tissue.
Key Applications
- Crown Preparation: The flame shape and fine grit facilitate smooth, well-defined margin definition and axial wall refinement essential for accurate crown seating.
- Filling Treatment: Ideal for finishing and contouring composite or ceramic restorations, ensuring a clean, polished result with minimal surface roughness.

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.
