This is a precision-engineered manual endodontic file, an essential instrument for shaping and cleaning the root canal system during root canal therapy. The file features a sharp, tapered working tip with evenly spaced cutting flutes designed to efficiently remove infected tissue and smooth the dentin walls. The instrument is equipped with an ergonomic, color-coded handle for a secure grip and easy identification of its size. The yellow rubber or silicone stop (or "stop disc") allows the clinician to accurately set and measure the working length within the canal. This type of file is crucial for achieving the necessary preparation for successful root canal obturation.
