Band Removing Pliers Short Neck 12.5 cm / Hu-Friedy Style
When Space Is Tight, Your Instrument Shouldn’t Get in the Way

Band Removing Pliers Short Neck 12.5 cm – Hu-Friedy Style
Some posterior bands just don’t leave you much room to work with. The Band Removing Pliers Short Neck 12.5 cm – Hu-Friedy Style were built for exactly that
scenario: a compact 12.5 cm neck and an offset working tip that gets you into tight posterior spaces without fighting the anatomy — or the patient’s patience. The metal tip engages the band edge cleanly, while a replaceable Teflon pad keeps the tooth surface protected the entire time.
It’s a smaller footprint with the same OrthodentalUSA reliability you’d expect from a full-size instrument — sterilizable, corrosion-resistant, and ready for daily rotation in your tray.
Compact by Design, Not by Compromise
Machined from premium stainless steel, this plier holds its edge and resists corrosion through repeated autoclave cycles. The offset working alignment gives you controlled mechanical leverage even in confined spaces, so removal stays predictable whether you’re working an upper or lower posterior band.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the short-neck design different from the long Ormco-style version?
The short-neck, Hu-Friedy-style design uses an offset 12.5cm working end built for tighter access, while the Long Ormco-style version favors extended reach for deeper posterior molars. Choose based on the access you need chairside.
Is this compatible with upper and lower posterior bands?
Yes. The offset metal tip is designed to engage both upper and lower posterior orthodontic bands during standard removal procedures.
Does the Teflon pad protect the tooth during removal?
Yes. The replaceable, heat-resistant Teflon pad cushions the occlusal surface and helps minimize stress on the tooth during removal, and can be swapped out as it wears.
What warranty comes with this instrument?
It ships with a one-year warranty and is manufactured by OrthodentalUSA Corp. in the USA.
