Frequently asked questions
Does the Titanium Nitride coating improve instrument longevity?
Yes, the black Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating is a key feature designed to enhance the instrument’s overall durability. By providing a smoother cutting action, this coating can also help maintain the sharpness of the blade over time, potentially reducing the frequency of maintenance.
