Key Features
RACE EVO
Latest evolution of the RaCe family — heat-treated NiTi with blue color, simple 3-file 1-2-3 sequence (glide path + 2 shapers), uniform 800-1000 RPM / 1.5 Ncm settings across all files, up to 2.8x cyclic fatigue resistance vs RaCe
Vortex Blue
Blue heat treatment provides min 65% better cyclic fatigue resistance vs M-Wire NiTi and at least 42% higher peak torque strength (manufacturer data)
