Product information "Promed Carbide Bit Flame (198461)"

Promed Carbide Bit Flame (198461) – for artificial nails

The Promed Carbide Bit in a flame shape is a robust bit made of tungsten carbide with teeth for the precise removal and shortening of artificial nails, gel and acrylic. The flame shape works especially precisely at edges, corners and along the nail fold thanks to its tapering, curved contour. Carbide removes material quickly and efficiently and runs at a higher speed than sapphire or diamond. Fits all Promed nail drills with a 2.35 mm collet.

Key features at a glance

  • Material: tungsten carbide – robust and free-cutting.
  • Shape: flame – ideal for precise work at edges, corners and along the nail fold.
  • Application: artificial nail modelling (gel/acrylic); not for the natural nail.
  • Shank: dental standard Ø 2.332–2.350 mm, for all Promed devices with a standard collet.
  • Recommended speed: up to 40,000 rpm.
  • Cleaning: autoclavable (121–134 °C) or in an ultrasonic bath.

What is it used for and how?

  • Edges & corners: use the tapering flame shape to work precisely at nail edges and corners.
  • Nail fold: the curved contour allows targeted removal along the nail fold and in hard-to-reach areas.
  • Tip: work with even guidance and little pressure; not suitable for sensitive skin.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What is the Carbide Bit Flame suitable for?

For precise work at edges, corners and along the nail fold. The tapering, curved flame shape targets hard-to-reach areas on artificial nails.

Can I autoclave the bit?

Yes. All Promed carbide bits are autoclavable (121–134 °C); alternatively, clean it in an ultrasonic bath.

Why does carbide run faster?

Carbide bits are designed for higher speeds (up to 40,000 rpm) and therefore remove material faster and more efficiently than sapphire or diamond attachments.

With the Promed Carbide Bit Flame you work precisely at edges, corners and along the nail fold.
