The STALEKS PRO EXPERT left-handed Corn carbide bit with blue band (6 mm diameter, 14 mm working part) is a solid metal instrument with medium abrasiveness and medium rigidity. Its working surface features a medium straight transverse cross-cut fluting pattern. Carbide bits are prized for their ability to shave material away cleanly rather than grinding it into dust.
The corn shape is highly versatile — ideal for correcting natural and extended nails, preparing nail plates for extensions, and removing gel polish and other hard-wearing coatings. It cuts cleanly and leaves an admirably smooth finish. In pedicure and podology applications, this bit performs well on calluses, corns, and thickened skin. Its cutting edges run counter-clockwise (reverse), specifically engineered for comfortable left-handed operation.
During gel polish removal or other left-handed procedures, move the bit along the nail edge with gentle, even strokes, avoiding jerky motions or dwelling in one area. Maximum recommended speed is 6,000 RPM. Suggested speeds: natural nails — 5,000-10,000 RPM for filing and polishing, 10,000-15,000 RPM for cuticle work; artificial nails — 15,000-20,000 RPM for shaping, 20,000-25,000 RPM for coating removal.
