dental luks set (4pcs)

The Dental Luks Set (4pcs) consists of four single-ended root canal pluggers — L1, L2, L3, and L4 — each carrying a blunt, tapered working tip with a reach of 18 mm. Tip diameters step up progressively across the set: L1 at 0.45 mm, L2 at 0.50 mm, L3 at 0.75 mm, and L4 at 1.00 mm. Each tip is tapered along the working end, allowing increased apical pressure as the plugger advances deeper into the obturated canal. The handle on each instrument features a ringed knurled grip pattern machined from surgical-grade German stainless steel, providing rotation control during vertical condensation strokes. All four instruments measure consistently in overall length, keeping hand positioning uniform when switching between sizes.

The tapered tip geometry allows each Dental Luks Plugger to penetrate warm gutta-percha and distribute heat laterally during thermoplastic obturation. The blunt working end compacts rather than cuts — pressing the filling material apically and laterally without perforating the canal wall. The stainless-steel alloy resists corrosion through repeated autoclave sterilization at 134°C without tip distortion across extended clinical use.

Endodontists and general dentists use the Dental Luks Set (4pcs) during root canal obturation procedures on single and multi-rooted teeth. The Root Canal Plugger Luks set covers the full range of canal diameters from fine anterior canals to wide posterior roots, allowing the clinician to select the appropriate tip size without switching instrument sets. Clinicians use short vertical condensation strokes, working from L4 down to L1 as they compact material progressively toward the apex.

Leader Surgical backs every instrument set it produces with the same manufacturing discipline — consistent tip geometry, verified material composition, and dimensional accuracy that clinicians can count on tray after tray.

What are the standard dimensions of a Luks Plugger?
A typical Luks Fig. 3 plugger has a 0.75mm blunt tip and an 18mm working length. Smaller versions, like the Fig. 1, may have a 0.45mm diameter for narrower canals.
