Promed Carbide Bit, Small Teardrop (198443) – for artificial nails
The Promed Carbide Bit in a small teardrop shape is a robust bit made of tungsten carbide with cross-cut teeth for fine, precise removal of artificial nails, gel and acrylic. The small teardrop shape is ideal for fine, precise work in recesses and on small areas. 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.
