Busch® Burs Pearl Drills 1.40mm (ISO #014) are the preferred choice of professional jewelers and artisans worldwide. Established in 1905, Busch has a long-standing reputation for producing high-precision rotary tools crafted from premium materials, offering unparalleled durability and reliability tailored specifically for delicate applications like pearl drilling and jewelry making.
These pearl drills feature a unique smooth flat head design with a 1.40mm diameter, made from high-quality hardened tungsten vanadium steel, ensuring clean, soft-edged holes without causing damage to the fragile nacre surface. Each bur provides a 4.2mm working head depth to deliver consistent and precise drilling, whether creating new holes or enlarging existing ones.
The 2.34mm tapered shank is compatible with a wide range of rotary tools, including pendant drills, micromotors, flex shafts, Dremel tools, and pin vices, enabling optimal control and precision during delicate operations.
For best results, pearls should be securely held in a pearl vice or cushioned with protective tape, and drilling should be performed under water or with adequate lubrication to prevent overheating, cracking, or discoloration of the pearl. The smooth cutting action of Busch® burs helps minimize vibration and ensures a flawless finish, making these burs essential for any jeweler’s toolkit.
