Heavy Duty Wire Cutter - Multi-Action, Stainless Steel
The Heavy Duty Wire Cutter is a multi-action orthodontic plier engineered for cutting the heaviest archwires, arch bars, Kirschner wires, and retention wires without excess hand force. A compound double-joint mechanism multiplies handle travel into cutting force at the beak, and a spring return opens the jaws automatically between cuts so the operator can work a batch of wires quickly. Diagonal beaks from Equate Instruments shear hard stainless wires up to 0.035 inch with a clean, square cut face. The passivated stainless-steel body is finished with diamond-patterned anti-slip handles for secure control even with wet gloves, is fully autoclavable and ships non-sterile for standard in-office sterilisation.

Hard Wire Cutter Plier 15 Degree Tungsten-Carbide Max 0.028 Inch Wire
This Hard Wire Cutter Plier is an orthodontic cutting instrument with 15-degree angled tungsten-carbide inserts on the cutting edges. The angled head lets the clinician position the cut flush against the buccal tube or bracket, and the tungsten-carbide tips retain their edge through repeated cuts on hardened stainless-steel and beta-titanium archwires up to 0.028 inch (0.71 mm). Forged from stainless steel with a spring-return handle, this Equate Instruments plier is fully autoclavable and supplied non-sterile for in-clinic processing.

Hard Wire Cutter Plier - Tungsten Carbide, 0.71 mm / .028 in Wire
The Hard Wire Cutter is a heavy-duty orthodontic plier with tungsten-carbide cutting inserts rated for hard wires up to 0.71 mm (0.028 in) in diameter. The reinforced joint and thicker beak profile transfer the higher cutting forces needed to sever stainless-steel archwire and heavy accessory wire, while the carbide edges deliver a flush cut that resists chipping. The plier body is stainless steel, and the gold-coated handles mark it as the tungsten-carbide edition in a mixed orthodontic kit. Equate Instruments supplies the plier non-sterile and fully autoclavable, ready for daily use in wire-bending and finishing workflows.

Hard Wire Cutter 15 cm with Compound Pivot
The Hard Wire Cutter 15 cm is a heavy-duty orthodontic plier built for sectioning stainless-steel archwires and laboratory wires that a standard light-wire cutter cannot handle. A compound pivot with two screwed linkages multiplies the user's grip force, delivering a clean through-cut on hardened wire without crushing or deforming the cross-section. Both jaws are ground from surgical stainless steel for a flush cutting face that meets squarely under load, and an internal leaf spring returns the handles to the open position between cuts. Ribbed finger shanks keep the hand from slipping during heavy work. Supplied non-sterile by Equate Instruments and fully autoclavable for routine orthodontic and laboratory trays.

Hard Wire Cutter - 15 Degree Angled 12 cm
The Hard Wire Cutter in a 15 degree angled 12 cm pattern is a heavy-duty orthodontic plier for cutting hard archwires in the posterior arch. The modest head angle brings the tungsten carbide insert tips in line with the buccal tube without requiring the operator to rotate the wrist, which makes long activation sessions more comfortable. Tungsten carbide inserts handle stainless archwires from 0.021 inch up to 0.028 inch, and the 8 mm diamond-honed beaks produce a clean, square cut face for a smooth patient experience. Equate Instruments sets the insert tips into a rivet-joint passivated stainless body that is fully autoclavable and supplied non-sterile for in-office processing.
