- Enhanced Chuck Mechanism: The "DURAPOWER CHUCK" guarantees a sustained grip which enables it to reduce bur slipping.
- Quick Stop Function: The handpieces feature a quick stop function, halting high-speed rotation in 1 second to enhance safety and efficiency during surgeries.
- Improved Cleanability: A water circuit on the turbine head side simplifies cleaning, ensuring optimal performance and hygiene.
- User-Replaceable Turbine: Hassle-free turbine replacement ensures minimal interruptions during treatment.
- Easy-Access Head Angle: With a 100° angled head, the handpieces provide efficient access to molars, simplifying complex procedures.
