FAQs
What is a How plier used for?
General chairside wire handling: holding archwire while it is secured, placing and removing ligatures, and picking up small attachments.
What do the tungsten carbide tips add?
Tungsten carbide is much harder than stainless steel, so the gripping surfaces resist wear and keep their bite on hardened archwire far longer than plain steel tips.
What material is this instrument made from?
It is made from hardened Japanese-standard (JIS) SUS 410J1 stainless steel with tungsten carbide inserts in the working tips, and withstands repeated autoclave sterilisation.
