The Morelli Amber Latex Intraoral Elastics ā 1/4ā³ (Bulk) are natural latex orthodontic elastics with a 1/4ā³ (6,35 mm) nominal diameter, the intermediate size of the Morelli intraoral line. This diameter covers the middle of the range: long enough to cross distances that the smaller sizes would over-stretch, short enough to stay well controlled in routine elastic mechanics.
Key Features
1/4ā³ (6,35 mm) nominal diameter ā every unit in this pack is supplied in this single diameter
Intermediate span ā covers the middle of the range between localized and long-span traction
100% natural latex rubber ā elastic memory and controlled force delivery for orthodontic traction
Three force levels ā Light, Medium and Heavy, selectable per order, to match the mechanics
ā„80% residual force at 24 hours ā force decay stays within a predictable range over a full wear cycle
Light mint essence ā minimal scent and taste, which supports patient acceptance during wear

Looking for the mid-range diameter?
The 1/4ā³ (6,35 mm) diameter sits in the middle of the line ā the working choice when the span is too long for the small sizes and too short for the large ones.
