Key Features
One Shape
Single-file continuous rotation with variable asymmetric cross-section (3 to 2 cutting edges) and ABC anti-breakage control
Traverse
Rotary glide path system with orifice opener and two glide path file sizes — pre-sterilized, triangular cross-section, higher torsional resistance vs competitors (manufacturer comparison)
