Foredom Rubber Point Taper 6x16mm Coarse 2.35mm

Description:

The Rubber point taper 6x16mm coarse 2.35mm is specifically crafted for tasks requiring a combination of depth access and controlled reduction. Its tapered geometry enables clinicians to enter narrow areas such as gingival margins, undercuts, internal appliance angles, and tight embrasure spaces. The broader base provides stability, while the narrower tip supports fine shaping. Constructed with coarse-grade abrasive particles suspended within a rubber matrix, this tool provides rapid trimming of acrylic denture bases, orthodontic appliance edges, metal substructures, and provisional crowns or bridges. Because the taper design delivers both precision and surface adaptability, it is particularly valuable for occlusal refinement, appliance contouring, and anatomical adjustments during try-in appointments. The 2.35mm shank ensures compatibility with standard contra-angle handpieces, offering steady rotational stability. The robust 6x16mm size provides enough working surface for efficient shaping, while still enabling precision around delicate structures. In dental laboratory environments, the taper point is used during wax pattern contouring, clasp shaping for removable partial dentures, and framework refinements before final polishing. The rubber binder helps minimize heat buildup, reducing the risk of thermal damage or premature wear. Overall, the Rubber point taper 6x16mm coarse 2.35mm is a versatile and dependable instrument, combining power and precision for detailed shaping across a broad range of dental materials.
