Kobayashi Tie (Short) for Orthodontic Supplies | Precision Orthodontic Ligature Wires Orthodontic Products & Ortho Accessories | Secure Bracket Stabilization Solution
Product Description
The Kobayashi Tie (Short) is a specialized orthodontic ligature wire designed for non-self-ligating bracket systems, offering superior stabilization and force consistency during tooth alignment procedures. Manufactured from medical-grade stainless steel with a tensile strength of 1,600-1,900 MPa, this short-length ligature ensures secure archwire retention while minimizing soft tissue irritation. Available in two precision diameters (010 for 0.25mm and 012 for 0.30mm), it supports customized torque control across various treatment phases from initial alignment to finishing.
Key Technical Specifications
Material: ASTM F138-certified 316LVM stainless steel
Sizes: 010 (0.25mm) for delicate adjustments, 012 (0.30mm) for robust stabilization
Packaging: Sterile, resealable jars containing 100 pre-formed units per container
Compatibility: Optimized for conventional metal and ceramic brackets (non-self-ligating)
Performance Advantages
1 Enhanced Bracket Security
Proprietary omega-loop design delivers 22-25N retention force, reducing bracket slippage by 40% compared to standard ligatures in clinical trials.
2 Patient-Centric Design
Shortened 5mm length eliminates excess wire ends, decreasing tongue irritation risk and improving oral hygiene maintenance.
3 Operational Efficiency
Pre-cut configuration reduces chairside preparation time by 30%, with color-coded jar lids (010 green, 012 black) for instant size identification.
4 Friction Control Technology
Electropolished surface reduces wire-bracket friction by 18%, facilitating predictable sliding mechanics in space closure stages.
Clinical Validation
Orthodontist Feedback: 87% of practitioners reported improved mid-treatment stability in multi-bracket systems.
Sustainable Packaging
Gamma-irradiated sterilization ensures zero chemical residue.
Recyclable HDPE jars comply with eco-friendly dental practice requirements.
