Key Features
iRaCe Plus
Extended 4-file sequence (R1a-R1b-R2-R3) designed for narrow and/or severely curved canals where standard iRaCe R1 (15/.06) cannot reach working length — uniform 600 RPM / 1.5 Ncm settings
XP-endo Shaper
Expands at body temperature to adapt to canal anatomy (shown as Shaper Plus sequence: Shaper + Finisher)
