Mini Engraving Cutter 1.6mm Ball 2.4mm Shank
Shape: Ball
Tip Diameter: Ø1.6mm
Shank Diameter: Ø2.4mm
This Mini Engraving Cutter is a precision-engineered tool designed for high-detail artistry. Featuring a 1.6mm ball-shaped head, it excels at creating smooth, rounded grooves and delicate hollows. The spherical geometry allows for consistent material removal from any angle, making it an essential choice for intricate engraving, carving, and freehand routing.
The 1.6mm diameter is specifically tailored for those who need a balance between visibility and micro-precision. Whether you are etching fine lines into hardwoods, detailing soft metals, or sculpting plastics, this cutter provides the control necessary to execute complex patterns without compromising the integrity of your workpiece.
For maximum stability, the bit is built with a 2.4mm shank. This standard sizing ensures a secure, "no-slip" fit in most high-speed rotary tools and professional engraving machines. The reinforced shank design helps minimize vibration during high-RPM tasks, granting you the steady hand required for professional-grade finishes and clean edges.
Crafted from high-quality, durable materials, this mini ball cutter is designed to maintain its sharpness through repetitive use. It is a versatile workhorse for jewelers, model makers, and craftspeople looking to add professional depth, texture, and character to their creative projects.

The shank is securely locked in place by fitting it in the corresponding collet or making use of a keyless chuck.
Rotation speed:
Most rotary tools have the benefit to adjust the rotation speed. Many tool bits that fit in rotary tools have a maximum speed setting. This can normally be found on the packaging.
All materials react differently to speed and will need the tool bit to rotate slower. It is recommended to start using accessories on the slower speed first, before increasing the speed as needed.
The diameter of the tool bit fitted also determines the rotation speed. The larger the diameter, the slower the speed. If the speed is set too high, it could bend the shank/shaft resulting in injury.
