The DIAO - KP6801 is a round shaped coarse diamond used for cavity preparation. Komet's unique rose gold-coloured DIAO is a next-generation diamond designed with pearls for precise cutting, excellent control and long-lasting sharpness.
Features:
- Exceptional cutting efficiency with minimal pressure, allowing faster tooth preparation while maintaining precise control.
- Ultra-smooth cutting action delivers coarse-diamond speed without vibration or chatter.
- Advanced DIAO diamond technology offers up to 27% greater initial sharpness compared to standard diamonds.
- Reduced heat generation helps preserve healthy tooth structure during preparation.
- Ceramic micro-pearls between diamond particles optimize spacing for more active cutting edges.
- Consistent, long-lasting performance designed for outstanding durability and extended bur life.
S-Diamond to DIAO Conversion:
Directions for use:
- Use at an optimum speed of 160,000 rpm, preferably in a red contra-angle or, alternatively, in a turbine. Instruments subject to a speed limit of 300,000 rpm are not authorized for use in a turbine (e.g., KP6370.314.030/035 or KP6845KR.314.025—see information on the label).
- Always provide sufficient spray cooling of at least 50 ml/min.
- For good preparation results, the surface should be smoothed with a finisher of matching shape after the initial preparation.
- The instruments remove substance very effectively. Therefore, only low pressure (< 2 N) needs to be applied during use.
Efficiency Created from Diamonds and Pearls.
The innovative diamond coating of DIAO burs is interspersed with ceramic pearls. This concentrates pressure on the tips of the diamond grains, greatly increasing their cutting efficiency.
