Extended-Life Bearings For Dental Handpieces

    Sept. 1, 2005
    Extended-life bearings include stainless-steel rings and a special bearing retainer for use in high and low-speed dental handpieces.

    Dental and medical bearings come lubricated with filtered, food-safe and autoclave-resistant grease. The bearings are designed to work in lube-starved conditions for short periods of time until proper maintenance is performed. Bearings can be customized with flanges, lubrication grooves, O-ring housings, and alternative materials.
