Stainless Steel

Ultimate’s Stainless Steel wire products, manufactured of medical grade stainless materials, have smooth surfaces, accurate forms, and consistent forces to provide reduced friction and precise torque control.

Stainless Steel wire offerings have evolved from the original solid to include various strand options which provide more flexibility and lighter forces.

Solid Wire

Round, Square, and Rectangular archwire are formed from high quality, high-luster Type 304VSS wire. Tight controls ensure consistent shape and flatness. High tensile strength and high modulus of elasticity. Straight lengths produced from high quality Type 302SS.

3-Strand Flat Lingual Retainer Wire

Thin, flat, fully-annealed wire formed from 3-strand Type 302SS wire. Bonds easily to retain tooth position.

3-Strand

Three twisted strands of fine, round Type 302SS that form a single wire to provide light forces, good flexibility, and resiliency.

 

Coax (6 Strand)

Five strands of very fine Type 302SS wrapped around a single core wire. Light ligating and tooth-moving forces.

8-Braid

Eight equal-sized Type 302SS braided into a tight matrix and rolled to the popular rectangular sizes to provide gentle tooth-moving forces for finishing stages. In general, these offer the lightest force of the Stainless Steel wires. Resists fraying when cut.

SS Looped

Precise loop placement and shape ensure accurate results in space closure and Class II cases. Available with 2- and 4- preformed loops.

Utility

The multi-purpose archwire! Available in Nickel Titanium and Stainless Steel, Ultimate's utility arches can be used for leveling, uprighting and intrusion.

Ultimate takes pride in offering high quality, high-luster archwires with consistent forces. Refer to the Our Support section for Force Graphs and Wire Bending Forces of Ultimate's Stainless Steel wires.
