Hollow Chop Arch Forming Pliers 12 cm
Product Code: N21150414
Consistent Arch Curves, Without the Second Attempt
An arch form that comes out slightly off on one side means more chair time undoing and redoing the same curve. The Hollow Chop Arch Forming Pliers 12 cm are built to get it right the first time — matched concave and convex working surfaces guide the wire into a smooth, controlled curve instead of leaving you to eyeball the shape freehand.
The complementary geometry contours the wire evenly between both surfaces, minimizing unwanted deformation while giving you consistent, repeatable arch forms case after case.
Compact Size, Full Control
The compact 12 cm design gives you excellent balance and maneuverability for detailed, close-up wire-forming work. A durable riveted joint keeps the mechanism smooth and precisely aligned through repeated professional use and sterilization cycles, and the premium stainless steel construction resists corrosion case after case.
