Orthodontic Pliers Set: Half-Round and Flat Nose Stainless Steel Utility Pliers (14 cm)
A two-piece set of orthodontic utility pliers, designed for wire bending and appliance adjustment in a clinical or laboratory setting. Both pliers are crafted from stainless steel, allowing for full steam or chemical sterilisation, and feature a robust box-joint construction for reliable, flex-free operation.
The set includes one pair of flat-nose pliers for general gripping and bending, and one pair of half-round/concave pliers for forming loops, clasps, and palatal arches. The smooth, precisely aligned jaws prevent scoring or marring of wires, ensuring a clean finish on all adjustments.
Primarily used by orthodontists and dental technicians for adjusting archwires, forming retainers, and contouring bands. Also suitable for fine-scale model engineering or jewellery making where precise, non-marring wire manipulation is required.
