The Morelli Sliding Jig Short is an intraoral device installed on the arch, allowing springs or elastics to be anchored to a hook whose position can be adjusted. The clinical force is set by positioning the hook along the Ć 0.7 mm wire, which makes this a versatile resource for mesialization and distalization mechanics. The short version has a 12 mm working length.
