The Quinelato Outer Torquing Pliers apply torque to one specific section of a rectangular archwire without distorting the rest of the arch. The jaw grips the wire from the outer face, letting the clinician twist a localized segment while the surrounding wire stays as placed.
Key Features
Outer-face jaw — grips the rectangular wire from the outer surface to twist an isolated segment
Localized torque application — confines the twist to the section held in the jaw
Rectangular wire capacity — sized for archwires up to 0.53 × 0.63 mm (0.021″ × 0.025″)
Ergonomic handle — supports firm, controlled rotation during the twist
Surgical stainless steel — corrosion resistant and autoclavable for repeated use
