The STALEKS PRO EXPERT Pinecone carbide bit with blue band (6 mm diameter, 14 mm working part) is a solid metal instrument with medium abrasiveness and medium rigidity. The working surface is equipped with a medium cross-cut transverse fluting pattern. Carbide construction means this bit removes material as clean shavings, not airborne dust — keeping your workspace cleaner and giving you better visibility.
The pinecone form excels at correcting both natural and extended nails, preparing the nail plate for extensions, and removing gel polish along with other hard coatings. It cuts material neatly and leaves a smooth, even finish. In pedicure and podology, it is widely used for processing calluses, corns, and rough skin. Always glide the bit smoothly along the nail edge without abrupt motions or sustained pressure on any single area.
Maximum recommended speed for this carbide bit is 6,000 RPM. Optimal procedure speeds: natural nails and skin — 5,000-10,000 RPM for filing and polishing, 10,000-15,000 RPM for cuticle and lateral fold work; artificial nails — 15,000-20,000 RPM for shaping, 20,000-25,000 RPM for coating removal, 25,000-30,000 RPM for free edge sculpting.
