STAR TOOL Standard Large Barrel Drill Bit
The STAR TOOL Standard Large Barrel Drill Bit is designed for efficient shaping, smoothing, debulking, and product removal. Its large barrel shape covers more surface area with each pass, making it especially useful for working quickly across acrylic, hard gel, and dip powder enhancements.
Available in a wide range of grits—from X-Fine for delicate finishing to 5X Coarse for extremely aggressive product removal—so nail technicians can choose the right cutting power for each service.
