Abstract
A deburring tool has a hollow top portion having an interior conical surface and an exterior surface. The exterior surface of the deburring tool is preferably conical. The top portion has a plurality of flutes formed therein and extending between the interior and exterior surfaces. Each of the flutes has a cutting edge formed at the interior conical surface. In operation, rotation of the deburring tool about a longitudinal axis removes burrs projecting from bar stock contacting the interior conical surface. A method of deburring bar stock comprises: (a) rotating the deburring tool about a longitudinal axis, and (b) contacting the bar stock to the deburring tool interior conical surface.

A deburring tool comprising a hollow top portion having an interior conical surface and an exterior conical surface, said top portion having:
- (a) a tool face;
- (b) a longitudinal axis;
- and
- (c) an exactly three flutes formed therein extending between said interior and exterior surfaces, each of said flutes having a cutting edge formed at said interior conical surface, said cutting edge forming an angle as measured from said longitudinal axis of said top portion, whereby rotation of said deburring tool about said longitudinal axis removes burrs projecting from bar stock contacting said interior conical surface.
A deburring tool comprising a hollow top portion having an interior conical surface and an exterior conical surface, said top portion having:
- (a) a tool face;
- (b) a longitudinal axis;
- and
- (c) a plurality of flutes formed therein extending between said interior and exterior surfaces, each of said flutes having a top end and a bottom end, wherein each of said top ends terminate the same distance from said tool face and each of said bottom ends terminate the same distance from said tool face, each of said flutes having a cutting edge formed at said interior conical surface, said cutting edge forming an angle as measured from said longitudinal axis of said top portion, whereby rotation of said deburring tool about said longitudinal axis removes burrs projecting from bar stock contacting said interior conical surface.
