Gel Removal Bit: IQNails – Professional Precision for Your Manicure
IQNails bits for hybrid polish and gel have been created for nail technicians who expect the highest quality work, full control, and comfort – both during fast gel product removal and precise cuticle treatment. Various types of bits for hybrid manicure and hybrid styling are available on the market, differing in material (e.g. ceramic, diamond, sintered carbide), shape (e.g. cone, rounded cone), grit, and intended use. The choice of the right bit depends on the hardness of the gel and the technician's experience – this is key for the comfortable, precise, and fast work provided by professional bits and e-files. Bit grit is indicated by colour: green (coarse cuts for fast removal of hard products), blue (medium grit – universal for gel and hybrid), yellow/red (very fine grit for the natural nail plate and smoothing). Ceramic bits are gentle, provide comfortable working conditions, do not heat up as quickly, and are the safest for beginners. Sintered carbide and carbide bits are recommended for fast removal of harder materials such as gel, hybrid polish, or acrylic, while diamond bits are extremely effective for removing cuticles and callused epidermis. When working with an e-file, it is recommended to use medium or high speeds (approx. 20,000 RPM) for smooth material removal, and to avoid holding the bit in one place to prevent overheating the plate and the risk of damaging the natural nail plate. Choosing the right bit and e-file is just as important as working technique, and professional products for removing gel and hybrid polish enable effective and safe removal of these materials from nails. Thanks to the use of durable materials such as sintered carbide and surgical steel, our bits ensure excellent efficiency, minimal heat generation, and exceptional resistance to wear.
Introduction to bits
A bit is an indispensable tool in the daily work of every nail technician, enabling fast and precise removal of gel product, hybrid polish, and acrylic during manicure and pedicure. Choosing the right bit is hugely important for the effectiveness and safety of hybrid polish removal and other product removal from nail surfaces. Bits differ in material, shape, and grit, allowing perfect adaptation to a specific task – from hybrid removal to gentle natural nail plate treatment.

Hygiene and durability of bits
Maintaining the hygiene and durability of bits is the foundation of safe and professional work. Bits made from sintered carbide stand out for exceptional abrasion resistance and long service life, even with intensive salon use. Regular cleaning and disinfection of bits are essential to prevent the spread of bacteria and ensure the highest safety standards. Even the most durable sintered carbide bits require periodic replacement, however, to maintain full effectiveness and working comfort.
Client and technician comfort
The comfort of both the client and the technician during hybrid removal depends on choosing the right bit. Ceramic bits are recommended especially for beginner nail technicians – they are gentle, do not heat up, and minimise the risk of damaging the natural nail plate. For experienced technicians who expect fast and effective action, carbide bits are the ideal choice, allowing swift hybrid and gel product removal. Choosing the right bit translates into client comfort, treatment safety, and a precise end result.
Hybrid polish removal
Hybrid polish removal requires the use of professional tools that ensure effectiveness and protection of the natural nail plate. A hybrid removal bit, thanks to its appropriate shape and grit, enables fast and safe removal of hybrid polish without the risk of damaging the plate. The choice of the right removal bit and the correct working technique are crucial for maintaining nail health and client comfort.
