Key Features

PX Wave

Single 15/.02 (ISO 015/.02) instrument at 300 rpm and 5.0 N·cm torque (per IFU spec table). Brand name "Wave" is consistent with a reciprocating instrument but the PX Wave IFU text does not explicitly call out reciprocating motion — motion type inferred from product family naming

RC

Three-instrument reciprocating set (R25 25/.08, R40 40/.06, R50 50/.05) operated at 250–360 rpm with 2.0–3.0 N·cm torque (per IFU spec table)
