The STALEKS PRO EXPERT Pinecone carbide bit with red band (6 mm diameter, 14 mm working part) is a solid metal instrument featuring fine abrasiveness and gentle cutting action. Its working surface has a fine cross-cut transverse fluting pattern for delicate yet effective material removal. True to carbide technology, it produces shavings instead of dust for a cleaner, more precise workflow.
The red-band pinecone shape is well suited for correcting natural and extended nails, prepping the nail surface for extensions, and removing gel polish and other resilient coatings with a lighter touch. It trims material carefully, leaving behind a polished, even surface. For pedicure and podology work, this bit handles callused skin, corns, and hardened areas gently and efficiently.
Glide the bit along the nail edge with steady, flowing movements — never press too hard or linger in one spot. Maximum permissible rotation speed is 6,000 RPM. Recommended working speeds: natural nails — 5,000-10,000 RPM for filing and buffing, 10,000-15,000 RPM for cuticle removal; artificial nails — 15,000-20,000 RPM for shaping, 20,000-25,000 RPM for coating removal and design.
