EdgeTaper Platinum™
ProTaper-compatible constant-taper multi-file sequence with FireWire heat treatment for enhanced cyclic fatigue resistance (manufacturer bench data: 2x vs ProTaper Gold)
| File | Tip | Taper | Speed rpm | Torque Ncm |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SX | 0.25 | 12% | 300-500 RPM | 2.94 Ncm (300 g-cm) |
| S1 | 0.17 | 6% | 300-500 RPM | 2.94 Ncm (300 g-cm) |
| S2 | 0.17 | 4% | 300-500 RPM | 2.94 Ncm (300 g-cm) |
| F1 | 0.20 | 6% | 300-500 RPM | 2.94 Ncm (300 g-cm) |
| F2 | 0.25 | 6% | 300-500 RPM | 2.94 Ncm (300 g-cm) |
| F3 | 0.30 | 6% | 300-500 RPM | 2.94 Ncm (300 g-cm) |
| F4 | 0.40 | 6% | 300-500 RPM | 2.94 Ncm (300 g-cm) |
| F5 | 0.50 | 6% | 300-500 RPM | 2.94 Ncm (300 g-cm) |
ProTaper-compatible file sequence — clinicians familiar with ProTaper Gold can transition with the same technique (per 2025 catalog)
FireWire heat treatment may provide enhanced cyclic fatigue resistance — manufacturer claims 2x vs ProTaper Gold, 6x vs original ProTaper (bench data, 2025 catalog)
Files may appear slightly curved due to heat treatment — this is normal, not a defect; they conform to canal anatomy once inside (per DFU)
Safe unwinding feature — files are designed to unwind as a safety warning before separation
Convex triangular cross-section per 2025 catalog
Compatible with most rotary file electric motors and handpieces
Use in clockwise rotary motion only — not compatible with reciprocating motors
Obturation Techniques
Single cone, warm vertical, carrier-based & lateral compaction
