V Bending Pliers 13.5cm
Orthodontic wire bending pliers designed to form precise V-shaped bends in archwires for controlled force application during fixed appliance therapy.
Key Features:
• Forged German stainless steel construction ensures durability and corrosion resistance
• 13.5cm overall length provides balanced handling and clinical control
• Matching V-shaped male and female jaws create precise wire deformation
• Produces consistent V-bends typically in the 30°–45° range
• Suitable for stainless steel archwires from 0.014″ to 0.022″
• Box-joint pivot ensures stable alignment during repeated bending cycles
• Satin-finish surface reduces glare for improved visual control
• Autoclavable at 134°C and resistant to standard sterilization processes
V Bending Pliers 13.5cm
Two mating V-profiles define the working head of the V Bending Pliers 13.5cm. One beak carries a V-shaped male projection. The opposing beak carries a matching female V-notch. When the jaws close around an archwire, the wire deforms into a sharp V-bend at the contact point. Forged German stainless-steel forms the 13.5-cm body. A riveted box-joint pivot and spring-return handle shanks complete the assembly.
Within the broader category of Orthodontic Pliers, this 13.5-cm V-bend tool produces consistent angles between 30 and 45 degrees. It accepts stainless steel archwires from 0.014 to 0.022 inch. The matte satin finish lowers operatory light reflection. The instrument tolerates steam autoclave cycles at 134°C, ultrasonic baths, and chemical disinfection without surface pitting. Joint tolerance holds tight through thousands of bend cycles, and smooth handle shanks reduce hand fatigue across long fitting appointments.
Differential tip control in fixed appliance therapy calls for the V Bending Pliers 13.5cm at multiple stages of treatment. The orthodontist places the archwire between the V-shaped beaks. Closing the handles imprints a sharp V-bend at the chosen mesial or distal position. The bend creates asymmetric forces between adjacent brackets, generating root torque or anchorage on the targeted tooth. v bend orthodontic pliers of this gauge handle round, rectangular, and square stainless-steel stock.
Where most workshops still grind V-bend tip profiles by eye, Leader Surgical runs CNC tool-room machining for the notch geometry. Computer-controlled cuts hold the V-angle to within a fraction of a degree across every piece in a production run. The downstream effect on chairside use is that two pliers from the same shelf produce identical bend angles. Orthodontists building reproducible treatment mechanics quietly appreciate that consistency.
What is the primary function of these pliers?
In orthodontics, they are used to create precise V-stops or notches on archwires to prevent sliding. In jewelry making, they create clean 90-degree angles and geometric shapes.
