Frequently asked questions
Does the Titanium Nitride coating improve instrument longevity?
Yes. The black Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating is applied to the stainless steel body specifically to enhance durability. This high-performance finish provides a smoother operational surface, which significantly reduces wear and decreases the frequency required for sharpening, ensuring a longer service life.
How does the detachable shaft design assist with sterilization?
The detachable shaft mechanism is engineered for superior hygiene and maintenance: <ul><li>Ease of access: By pulling the back hammer, the crossbar separates from the shank.</li><li>Thorough cleaning: This allows the instrument to be opened fully, ensuring that all internal surfaces can be properly cleaned and sterilized between procedures.</li></ul>
