Foredom Mounted Brush-Grey Horse Hair17.4mm Dia. 2.35mm

Description:

Mounted brush-grey horse hair 17.4mm dia. 2.35mm is tailored for procedures requiring a larger polishing brush capable of covering wide surfaces while maintaining controlled and gentle abrasive action. Its 17.4mm diameter makes it especially effective for smoothing extensive facial or lingual surfaces of crowns, implants prosthetics, full-contour zirconia, and acrylic appliances. Grey horsehair bristles offer a unique combination of softness and spring, allowing them to glide across restorative materials without generating excessive heat or causing scratches. This makes the brush ideal for pre-gloss smoothing after contouring with burs or carbides. The natural bristle fibers effectively remove dust and create sleek, uniform surfaces while preserving anatomical details. Its 2.35mm shank fits standard contra-angle and straight handpieces, ensuring secure attachment and smooth rotational movement. Dental technicians frequently use this brush during the initial polishing stages of metal frameworks, ceramic restorations, and acrylic dentures. It helps refine texture, enhance surface luster, and prepare materials for finer polishing compounds or felt wheels. This brush can also be used in orthodontic and appliance finishing, particularly for smoothing aligner edges, removing acrylic flash, and cleaning retainer interiors. Despite its larger size, the brush maintains a gentle touch, making it suitable for delicate materials that require careful handling. Its durability and consistent performance make it a practical addition to any dental finishing workflow.
