With parallel sides and a domed end, the straight fissure round head cuts straight walls while leaving a rounded floor, which is kinder to the material than a sharp internal corner. The 1.6 mm head is a mid-size that handles general contouring of dentures, frameworks and models. As a medium crosscut cutter it does the main shaping work between bulk reduction and finishing.
