Orthodontic Kim Pliers with Tungsten Carbide Wire Cutter
The Orthodontic Kim Pliers with Cutter by GIGI Tools is a multi-functional wire-bending and cutting instrument engineered for clinical accuracy in archwire customization. Measuring 5.5 inches in overall length, this all-in-one tool features 3-step graduated beaks alongside built-in Tungsten Carbide (TC) cutting blades, allowing orthodontists to bend precise loops and trim wire excess without reaching for a separate wire cutter.
The stepped cylindrical beak is precisely calibrated with three cylindrical diameters—Ø 1.8mm, Ø 2.8mm, and Ø 3.8mm—opposed by a smooth taper (1.9mm tip width) to form uniform, repeatable loops across various archwire sizes. High-grade Tungsten Carbide inserts embedded directly into the internal cutting edges ensure crisp, burr-free cuts on hard orthodontic wires without dulling or edge chipping over time. Crafted from high-hardness stainless steel, this instrument resists structural warping under torque and features a rust-proof, polished smooth finish suitable for continuous autoclave sterilization.
