The 7BA60 Legend bur is a relatively large‑diameter, ball‑ended cutting / dissecting tool in the Legend line. Having a 6 mm head gives it enough surface area and mass to remove moderate to significant amounts of bone more rapidly than smaller diameter burs. The ball tip geometry means that instead of slicing with sharp edges, much of the contact with bone is rounded; this is useful when you want smoother contours, avoid sharp transitions, or minimize risk to adjacent softer tissues. The fluted edge version allows for efficient chip evacuation and cooling, as flutes help channel away bone debris; this is especially important with larger diameters because there’s more material being removed and greater risk of heat generation.

With a 7 cm shaft, this bur strikes a balance between reach and control. It is long enough to access somewhat deep or recessed surgical sites (e.g. parts of the skull base, posterior spinal elements, large joint cavities) while still being manageable in terms of leverage, vibration, and surgeon’s visibility. The standard (fluted) version, being less aggressive than the diamond variant, is well suited for tasks where you want decent removal rates without being overly abrasive or risking microfractures. The diamond (7BA60‑D) version trades off some removal speed for smoother finishes, less vibration, perhaps more durability when working on very hard bone or sclerotic surfaces.

Surgeons will often select a tool like the 7BA60 when they need to remove bulk bone or sculpt larger surfaces, but still want more precision and safety than with larger, flat or cylindrical burs. For example, after making initial cuts or opening up a cavity with coarser tools, this 6 mm ball bur might be used to round off edges, finish lines, smooth curves, or trim down ridges. The single‑use, sterile design ensures that performance (sharpness, balance) is consistent case to case, and that there’s no worry about sterilization wear degrading the flutes or geometry. On the downside, due to the larger diameter, users must be mindful of heat generation, the force required, and potential for inadvertent damage if too much pressure is used; also, the tool is bulkier, so in very tight or small anatomy it may be less desirable than smaller burs.
