Hook Crimping Plier – Curved
Product Code: N21150904
Add a Hook Without Pulling the Wire
Adding an auxiliary hook shouldn’t mean removing the archwire and starting the adjustment over. The Hook Crimping Plier – Curved is built for exactly this chairside moment — its curved beak reaches posterior regions with clear visibility, so you can position and crimp a hook accurately while the wire stays right where it belongs.
Precision-engineered crimping tips secure the hook firmly to round or rectangular archwires while minimizing wire distortion, giving you a dependable attachment point for elastics or power chain without compromising the rest of the arch.
Built for the Repetition of Chairside Adjustments
Manufactured from premium surgical stainless steel, this plier delivers excellent durability, corrosion resistance and long-lasting clinical performance — a dependable instrument for the auxiliary hook placements that come up case after case in fixed appliance therapy.
