Angulated Debonding Pliers (TC)
The Angulated Debonding Pliers are orthodontic instruments built for clean, controlled bracket removal at the end of fixed-appliance treatment. The angulated working head lets the clinician line up on the bonding base of each bracket, concentrating shear force at the adhesive interface so the bracket lifts cleanly without unnecessary load on the enamel. A tungsten carbide insert on the occluding jaw holds its edge through many debonding cycles, keeping the action predictable across full-mouth appointments. From Equate Instruments, the plier features slim tapered arms and a smooth spring return for comfort in extended sessions. The body is corrosion-resistant stainless steel, fully autoclavable, and supplied non-sterile for in-clinic sterilisation in the clinician's preferred workflow.

Adhesive Removing Pliers (TC)
The Adhesive Removing Pliers are built for post-debond clean-up, lifting residual bonding composite from the enamel without scarring the tooth surface. The plier pairs a white Teflon occlusal pad with a tungsten-carbide scraping tip on the opposing jaw. In use, the Teflon pad seats on the occlusal surface of the tooth while the TC scraper sweeps along the labial or buccal face, shearing adhesive away at the enamel interface. The forged stainless steel body from Equate Instruments is slim and well-balanced for extended chairside sessions, with a smooth spring return between squeezes. It is corrosion-resistant and fully autoclavable, and the working parts are replaceable when worn so the plier stays in service longer. Supplied non-sterile for in-clinic processing.

Adhesive Remover Changeable Parts - 5 Sets (Carbide Tip + Teflon Pad)
This pack contains five replacement sets of working parts for orthodontic adhesive removing pliers. Each set includes one tungsten carbide scraping tip and one Teflon occlusal pad, ready to swap into a compatible adhesive-removing plier when the original parts wear or foul with composite residue. Keeping a stock of replacement tips extends the life of the parent instrument and keeps post-debond finishing predictable appointment after appointment. The tungsten carbide tip is machined for consistent edge geometry, while the Teflon pad provides a soft, non-marking stop against the occlusal surface of the tooth during scraping. Parts from Equate Instruments fit standard adhesive removing pliers designed around a snap-in or screw-retained tip interface. Supplied non-sterile for processing in the clinic's preferred workflow.

Hammerhead NiTi Cinch Back Pliers 0.64 mm (.025″ Wire)
The Hammerhead NiTi Cinch Back Pliers are built to bend the distal end of NiTi and stainless archwires once they exit the buccal tube. The slim hammerhead working head reaches comfortably to the terminal molar region and places a clean, right-angled bend that stops the wire from sliding anteriorly and protects the patient's soft tissues from sharp ends. Equate Instruments constructs the plier in forged stainless steel with tapered arms, a smooth box-joint pivot, and a balanced spring return. The instrument is rated for round and rectangular archwires up to 0.64 mm (.025″), is corrosion resistant, and is fully autoclavable. It is supplied non-sterile for processing through the clinic's standard sterilisation cycle.

Bracket Remover with Narrow Tip
This orthodontic bracket remover is a precision debonding plier engineered to lift metal and ceramic brackets from the enamel with a controlled shear force. The narrow upper beak slips under the bracket base while the opposing tip rests against the archwire or crown, so the rotational pinch breaks the adhesive bond without loading the adjacent teeth. The long, curved stainless-steel handles close the jaws with minimal operator force and taper outward for a comfortable two-finger grip. Autoclavable and supplied non-sterile, this Equate Instruments plier is made for clinicians who need a narrow-tip remover for tight interbracket spaces and small anterior brackets.

Direct Bond Remover - Wide Tungsten Carbide
This direct-bond remover is a wide-beak orthodontic debonding plier with tungsten-carbide working inserts that grip the bracket wings and peel the bonded pad cleanly off the enamel. The wide upper cushion and flat lower anvil cradle the bracket fully, spreading the load across the pad so the adhesive releases in a single controlled motion. Long curved stainless-steel handles with polished tungsten-carbide grip surfaces close the jaws with low operator effort and resist the repeated wear of debonding cycles. Autoclavable and supplied non-sterile, this Equate Instruments plier is made for efficient end-of-treatment bracket removal on metal brackets with wide-base pads.

Direct Bond Bracket Remover - Wide with Replaceable Tip and Pad, Tungsten Carbide
This direct-bond bracket remover is a wide-beak debonding plier built for sustained clinical use, featuring both a replaceable tungsten-carbide tip and a replaceable cushion pad. The wide upper cushion seats the bracket wings while the flat lower anvil supports the pad, so a single controlled pinch peels the bonded bracket off the enamel in one motion. When the working insert or cushion wears, the clinician swaps the replaceable parts rather than the whole plier, protecting the long-term investment. Long curved stainless-steel handles reduce operator force, and the plier is autoclavable and supplied non-sterile. From Equate Instruments, this is a workshop-grade debonder for busy orthodontic practices.

Ball Hook Crimping Plier
The Ball Hook Crimping Plier is an orthodontic utility plier designed to crimp ball hooks, stops and auxiliary hooks onto archwires at the chairside. A profiled indentation on the upper beak matches the geometry of a standard ball hook, while the opposing beak supports the hook body, so a single controlled pinch closes the crimpable sleeve around the wire without deforming the hook. Long curved stainless-steel handles taper outward for a pen-style grip and deliver the consistent closing force needed for reliable crimping. The plier is autoclavable and supplied non-sterile. From Equate Instruments, it is the go-to tool for clinicians adding crimpable hooks for elastics, power chains and auxiliary mechanics.
