Abrasive Cap Removal Pliers

ABRASIVE CAP REMOVAL PLIERS

The Abrasive Cap Removal Pliers are a professional tool designed to facilitate the removal of abrasive caps used in podiatry from their respective holders or mandrels.

Their design allows abrasive caps to be removed easily, quickly and ergonomically, reducing the effort required during the process and making the professional's work easier, particularly when caps need to be changed frequently.

Thanks to their gripping mechanism, the pliers help protect the mandrel shank during removal, preventing unnecessary wear and helping to extend its service life.

They are suitable for removing different types of abrasive caps, including Podo, Greencap, Thermo, Extra-Long, Pointed and Hybricap, making it easier to change consumables during clinical procedures.

They feature a high-quality chrome-plated finish, which facilitates cleaning, disinfection and hygienic maintenance in clinical environments. They incorporate red plastic handles and a flat tip with a slot to hold the shank during removal.

They are optimised for use with rotary instruments featuring a standard 2.35 mm shank and have an overall length of 12.5 cm.
