Taper Calculator

Surface Grinder Calculator

Use this calculator with your Burr King Surface Grinder Attachment. The calculator will only work with Burr King surface grinders, unless your grinder uses the same sinebar lengths.

To use this calculator enter your data in the yellow boxes. For tapering a tang or grinding a distal taper, small end definition is the thinnest point you want to grind to. Large end is the thickest point.
