A deburring tool is adapted to be rotatably mounted in a chuck of a drive motor
to perform deburring operations. The deburring tool includes an arbor and a blade
having a cutting head portion defined at one end thereof and a clip portion defined
substantially at the other end of the blade opposite the head portion. The blade
is mounted relative to the arbor such that the blade projects a predetermined distance
from the arbor in an unstressed condition. The blade is sufficiently resiliently
yieldable such that it can move inwardly with respect to the arbor during deburring
operations. The clip portion is adapted to flex to provide a spring-like force
acting along the blade toward the head portion to facilitate insertion and removal
of the blade relative to the deburring tool without use of any tools.
