Foredom Step Drill 1.5

Description:

Step Drill 1.5 is a high-precision rotary dental laboratory instrument designed to enlarge hole diameters in a stable, controlled, and predictable manner. Its stepped structure gradually transitions to a 1.5 mm diameter, enabling technicians to increase hole size without causing damage or loss of concentricity. This makes it particularly valuable in the fabrication and adjustment of partial denture frameworks, implant bar structures, and acrylic appliances where precise hole sizing is critical for functional and mechanical stability. In dental laboratory settings, step drills are essential when working with housings, retention elements, attachments, or alignment components that must fit securely and accurately. The Step Drill 1.5 delivers this precision by ensuring each cut removes only a controlled amount of material. This minimizes risks of misalignment, burring, or deformation�common issues when using conventional cutting burs. Engineered from high-strength metals, the tool offers excellent durability and sharp performance on dental alloys such as chrome-cobalt, nickel-chrome, stainless steel, and titanium. It also works effectively on acrylic, thermoplastic materials, and composite resins used in prosthetic fabrication. The drill�s clean cutting action reduces vibration and heat, promoting smoother internal surfaces and ensuring optimal seating for attachments or components. Whether technicians are refining implant prosthetic architecture, adjusting a clasp assembly, fitting a precision attachment, or customizing a removable appliance, the Step Drill 1.5 provides the accuracy and reliability needed for high-quality restorative outcomes. It is a vital tool for achieving uniform, structurally sound, and mechanically durable hole expansions in modern dental laboratory workflows.
