M5 Deep Scaling Gracey Special Curette (GRA 13/14), for Distal surfaces of Premolars / Molars, Skewed for Optimal Placement - ZEPF-bIONIK Handle in Cobalt Blue with Nanopal Coating | Helmut Zepf No. 24.207.13GM5OX

The Gracey Curette GRA 13/14 from Helmut Zepf is a precision deep scaling instrument engineered for the distal surfaces of premolars and molars. Its skewed blade geometry ensures optimal subgingival placement and effective calculus removal in posterior regions, making it a trusted choice for clinicians who demand accuracy at every stroke.

Instrument Overview

This M5 Deep Scaling Gracey Curette features the ZEPF-bIONIK handle in Cobalt Blue, designed with ergonomic principles to reduce hand fatigue during extended procedures. The handle's balanced weight distribution and textured grip promote precise tactile feedback, supporting confident instrumentation in challenging anatomical areas.

ZEPF NANOPAL Coating

The instrument is finished with ZEPF's proprietary NANOPAL coating, which provides a smooth, low-friction surface on the handle for enhanced grip security. This advanced surface treatment is engineered to withstand the rigors of repeated sterilization cycles while maintaining the instrument's integrity and appearance over time.

Design Notes

The M5 design: the first shank is about 3 mm longer than standard and the sharpened working end is shortened, with a 0.95 mm thin, flexible and therefore highly tactile first shaft — built for special subgingival curettage in tight, deep pockets (beyond 5 mm) and along narrow root surfaces. Manufacturer literature (PDF).

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.
