Waldent Professional K-File 21mm

Stainless Steel Hand K-File.

Waldent Professional K File is manufactured by twisting or grinding a square or triangular tapered shaft so that the cutting edges are almost perpendicular to the long axis of the instrument. 

Designed with four cutting edges & a 60° tip with 135° cutting angle with good cutting ability.

This together with its tight spiral ensure a safe preparation. 

With more refined cutting edge, square cross section, these files lasts upto 8-10 endodontic cases.

INDICATION :

• For cleaning and shaping of canals.
• Negotiating the canals with hand files prior to using rotary files.
• It can be used as a pre-bent file in curved canals.

ADVANTAGES

• Sharp and mirror-like finishing edge.
• Its hard-fiber stainless steel prevents corrosion after repeated cleaning and sterilization.
• Have Less Separation Potential.
• Have Potential to Bypass Obstruction with Great Ease.
• Provide Smooth Tactile Feel while Instrumentation.
• Used with Rasping, Pulling Motion or Watch Winding Motion.
• Tighter Flutes, with more in number when compared to reamer.
• Handles are made up of Medical Grade Plastic, which are ISO Color-Coded & numbered according to size.
• The file comes with Radio – Opaque markings for easy length measurement.
• Blades are made of a Special Stainless Steel Alloy, which allows a high degree of Elasticity &  Tensile Strength.
• Inactive Pilot Tip.

• Directions to use:

• Watch Winding Technique

  • The use of the file in a forward and backward motion, as if watch winding, with slight apical pressure.
  • This allows the file to effectively debride the canal dentine by moving slowly down the canal. 
  • For K-type files, once the file has reached the desired working length a push and pulling action is used around the circumference of the canal, while only maintaining contact with the canal wall on the outstroke to minimize a debris blockage apically.

Packaging:

• Pack of 6 Files.
