This document contains a standard for burrs and deburring and an informational section. This is a voluntary standard, designed to convey edge quality expectations in the absence of any other definition. The informational section provides some rationale and insight into the impact of certain choices. The removal of burrs, rendering them more functional, and smoothing of edges are all often jointly referred to as ``deburring`` or ``burring.`` The term ``edge finishing`` is also used to describe the actions just mentioned. The degree of burr removal and edge finishing necessary for assembly and later use varies greatly among products and industries. The size, location, and properties of burrs similarly can vary widely between products and materials and even on the same product. Included are degrees of edge finishing that should be used when describing desired edge qualities.
