David Lloyd Tools Replacement Carbide Chisel Tip — Bowl Buster 20mm
Keep your David Lloyd Tools Bull Nose Bowl Buster performing at full power with a genuine replacement carbide chisel tip — Bowl Buster 20mm. When your tip eventually wears, simply swap it in seconds and you’re back at the lathe with a fresh, powerful cutting edge. No grinding, no fuss — just a quick tip change and you’re ready to tackle even the biggest blanks again.
The Bowl Buster tip is our largest and most powerful carbide tip at 20mm — designed specifically for serious bowl turning, large blanks and heavy stock where a standard tip simply isn’t enough. The larger carbide surface gives you the cutting power to work through dense hardwoods, green wood and deep bowl profiles with confidence and control.
This is the tip that serious bowl turners rely on. When the job is big, the Bowl Buster tip is the one you need.
These are genuine David Lloyd Tools carbide tips, precision made to fit our Bull Nose Bowl Buster chisel perfectly. The same high quality carbide that comes fitted to our new chisels — sharp, long lasting and capable of producing beautifully powerful cuts on any wood.
Why replace rather than sharpen? Traditional high speed steel chisels need regular grinding to maintain their edge — time away from the lathe and gradual loss of tool material. Carbide tips last significantly longer and when they do eventually wear, replacement takes seconds rather than minutes. It’s a genuinely better system for the modern woodturner.
What’s included:
- 1 x Bowl Buster 20mm carbide tip
- 1 x Fixing screw
- 1 x Allen key
Compatible with: The David Lloyd Tools Bull Nose Bowl Buster chisel only. Please note this tip is designed for our 12mm shaft Bowl Buster chisel and is not compatible with our standard 10mm shaft chisels.
Carbide Chisel Tip Bowl Buster 20mm
As the maker of these tools, I use our carbide chisels every day in my own workshop. The Bowl Buster tip is genuinely impressive on large blanks — the 20mm carbide surface removes material quickly and cleanly in a way that smaller tips simply can’t match. That’s not marketing — it’s personal experience.
We try not to be beaten on price — direct from the maker, no middleman markup. Any problems will always be handled personally to make sure you’re completely happy. That’s the David Lloyd Tools promise.
