    Carbide bits are made of tungsten carbide, a hard and durable material. They are used for filing and shaping natural nails and removing gel and acrylic. Carbide bits come in a variety of shapes and sizes, including cylinder, cone, and flame. They are ideal for heavy-duty tasks, such as removing thick layers of gel or acrylic.

Ceramic bits come in different shapes and sizes, including ball, cone, and cylinder. They are suitable for delicate tasks, such as finishing the edges of the nail or cleaning under the nail edge.
