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

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)
