This universal Tofflemire-style retainer provides a secure and adjustable clamp for thin metal matrix bands. The contra-angle head allows access to tight areas, while the primary screw mechanism moves the sliding body to tighten or loosen the band loop. A secondary smaller screw at the end locks the band securely into the retainer.

Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel, the instrument has a highly polished finish that resists corrosion and is easy to clean. The robust construction and simple mechanical action ensure reliability and a long service life. It is fully autoclavable, meeting the sterilisation requirements of dental, laboratory, and cleanroom settings.

Primarily designed for dental restorations, this tool is also useful for jewellers creating wax masters, model engineers forming small components, and technicians needing to create a temporary form or barrier for epoxies or resins.
