Description
The Adams Plier is a basic instrument designed to meet the precise demands of orthodontic wire bending, specifically for the fabrication of Adams clasps . This plier features two rectangular beaks with flat sides and finely textured beak to ensure an optimal grip on orthodontic wires, with a gap of 0.7 mm provided between beaks preventing slippage during intricate bending and adjustment tasks. This secure hold is crucial for maintaining precision in wire manipulation.
Constructed from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Adams Plier is both durable and highly resistant to corrosion, even after repeated high-temperature sterilization. Designed to withstand temperatures up to 180°C, it meets hygiene standards required in clinical settings while maintaining long-lasting durability against wear and rust.
Precision-engineered joints contribute to smooth handle rotation and ease of operation, enabling orthodontists to perform delicate adjustments with enhanced control and comfort. The plier can bend orthodontic wires up to 0.8 mm in diameter, offering versatility for a variety of wire types and bending tasks, from precise 90° bends to intricate loops. The box hinge design further enhances functionality by enabling seamless, effortless opening and closing, reducing hand fatigue and improving overall ergonomics.
