Composite Plastic Filling Instrument Fissure Former Ø 1.9 mm / Plugger Ø 1.5 mm (pear-shaped) - ZEPF-bIONIK Handle with NANOPAL Coating | Helmut Zepf No. 26.120.34TI

The Dental Composite Filling Instrument Fissure Former from Helmut Zepf is a precision-engineered restorative tool designed to meet the exacting demands of modern clinical dentistry. Featuring a Fissure Former tip of Ø 1.9 mm and a pear-shaped Plugger end of Ø 1.5 mm, this dual-ended instrument delivers controlled placement and contouring of composite materials in posterior fissures and occlusal surfaces.

Key Features

• Fissure Former: Ø 1.9 mm tip for precise composite condensation and fissure shaping
• Plugger: Ø 1.5 mm pear-shaped end for efficient material adaptation and packing
• bIONIK Handle: The ZEPF-bIONIK ergonomic handle design reduces hand fatigue and supports optimal tactile feedback during restorative procedures
• NANOPAL Coating: A specialist surface coating that minimises composite material sticking to the instrument, improving workflow efficiency and reducing contamination risk
• Made in Germany: Manufactured to the high-quality standards associated with Helmut Zepf GmbH production

Clinical Application

This Dental Composite Filling Instrument Fissure Former is well suited for direct posterior composite restorations where accurate fissure detailing and reliable plugging are essential. The NANOPAL-coated working ends resist composite adhesion, allowing clinicians to sculpt and condense resin-based materials with greater accuracy. The bIONIK handle provides a secure, comfortable grip that contributes to consistent, repeatable results across multiple restorative appointments.

Referenced as Helmut Zepf No. 26.120.34TI, this instrument represents a thoughtful combination of ergonomic handle engineering and functional tip geometry. Whether shaping occlusal anatomy or condensing composite into prepared cavities, the Dental Composite Filling Instrument Fissure Former supports a refined and efficient restorative workflow.

FAQ

What is the NANOPAL Coating? The NANOPAL Coating is a specialist surface treatment applied to the working ends of the instrument to minimise composite material adhesion, enabling cleaner placement and reduced cleanup time.

What does the bIONIK handle offer? The ZEPF-bIONIK handle is engineered for ergonomic comfort and improved tactile sensitivity, helping clinicians maintain control and reduce hand fatigue during restorative procedures.

What are the working end dimensions? The Fissure Former measures Ø 1.9 mm and the pear-shaped Plugger measures Ø 1.5 mm, making this Dental Composite Filling Instrument Fissure Former suitable for a range of posterior cavity preparations.

Design Notes

Nanopal® coating: the black crystalline nano-coating raises surface hardness to 4,500 Vickers — the highly tempered cutting edge stays aggressive and sharp far longer and does not need resharpening after each curettage, while the scratch-resistant black surface is easy to clean and prevents light reflections.
