Base Carrier with Rigid Tip
The Base Carrier with rigid tip is a double-ended restorative hand instrument designed to transport dental base materials such as glass ionomer, zinc oxide eugenol, and calcium hydroxide liner from the mixing pad to the prepared cavity. The slim, curved working ends pick up a controlled amount of material and deliver it accurately into the preparation without smearing the margins. The ergonomic silicone-sleeved handle cushions the fingers during extended restorative appointments and keeps the instrument light in hand. Manufactured from stainless steel by Equate Instruments, it is corrosion-resistant, fully autoclavable, and supplied non-sterile for in-clinic sterilisation.

Dental Plugger 1.8 / 2.5 mm Titanium
The dental plugger is a double-ended restorative condenser used to pack and condense composite, amalgam, or restorative filling material into the prepared cavity. Its slim working ends apply focused axial pressure against the restoration so the operator achieves a dense, void-free condensation at the cavity floor and along the margins. The titanium-coated shaft is lightweight and non-stick, limiting material pull-back during condensation, and the hollow anatomical handle supports a fatigue-reducing grip. Fully autoclavable and supplied non-sterile by Equate Instruments for in-office steam processing in pouches or cassettes.

Double-Ended Filling Plugger 2.5 mm / 3.8 mm - Hollow Handle
This double-ended filling plugger carries smooth flat tips at two calibrated diameters - 2.5 mm and 3.8 mm - for condensing and packing plastic restorative materials into prepared cavities. The flat working faces apply even pressure so filling material adapts cleanly against the preparation walls and eliminates voids. Both tips are titanium nitride coated for reduced stick and improved visual contrast against the filling material. The lightweight hollow stainless-steel handle carries a knurled barrel with blue accent rings for a balanced, tactile grip during condensation. Supplied non-sterile by Equate Instruments and fully autoclavable.

Plugger 1.0mm/2.0mm - Double-Ended Knurled Handle
The Plugger 1.0mm/2.0mm is a double-ended restorative condenser used to flatten and pack cement, amalgam and intermediate restorative materials into cavity preparations. Its two working ends, sized 1.0 mm and 2.0 mm, are set at shallow angles that let the clinician condense material against cavity walls without rocking the instrument. The flat, non-serrated faces compact restoratives for a smooth occlusal surface and a dense, void-free fill. The plugger is machined from surgical-grade stainless steel and mounted on a lightweight knurled handle for a stable wet grip during condensation strokes. Fully autoclavable between patients, the Equate Instruments plugger belongs in any cementation tray where graduated 1.0 mm and 2.0 mm tip sizes are needed to reach both anterior and posterior preparations.

Plugger 2.0 / 2.5 mm Knurled Handle
The Plugger is a double-ended restorative hand instrument used to condense composite, amalgam, and base materials inside prepared cavities. The flat working tips deliver focused apical pressure against cavity walls and the cavity floor to pack the material tightly and eliminate voids before carving or light-curing. The hollow knurled stainless steel handle is lightweight and gives a firm, fatigue-free tactile grip during extended restorative appointments. Manufactured by Equate Instruments, the instrument is corrosion-resistant, fully autoclavable, and supplied non-sterile for in-clinic sterilisation.

Retraction Cord Packer UP1 - Knurled Handle
The Retraction Cord Packer UP1 is a double-ended hand instrument designed to place and pack gingival retraction cord into the sulcus before crown, inlay and veneer impression taking. Each working end carries a 90-degree angled head with a flat, non-serrated face that tucks cord between the tooth and free gingival margin without shredding the fibres or snagging the cord out on the next tuck. The mirrored ends let the clinician follow the arch without rotating the handle. Machined from surgical-grade stainless steel and mounted on a lightweight knurled handle, the packer delivers a stable pen grip through careful sulcular work. It is fully autoclavable between patients. Equate Instruments finishes each working face by hand to preserve the non-snag geometry across many reprocessing cycles.

Cement Stopper - Solid Handle
The Cement Stopper is a double-ended condenser designed to flatten and compact luting cement into prepared cavities. Its angled flat working tips share the shape of an amalgam plugger but without the serrated surface, giving smooth non-abrasive contact with cement and avoiding retention of debris. Crafted from stainless steel with a knurled solid handle, the instrument is balanced for controlled packing strokes during cementation and temporary restoration. Equate Instruments supplies it non-sterile and fully autoclavable for standard clinic sterilisation.

Gingival Cord Packer Universal - 6 mm Solid Handle
The Universal Gingival Cord Packer is a double-ended operative instrument used to place retraction cord into the gingival sulcus prior to impression taking or cementation. Its flat, right-angle working tips tuck cord neatly around the margin of a crown preparation without tearing the fibres or tipping the cord out of the sulcus. Fabricated by Equate Instruments from hardened stainless steel with a 6 mm solid knurled handle, the cord packer gives the steady, controlled grip required for accurate placement. It is fully autoclavable and supplied non-sterile for in-clinic steam sterilisation in pouches or cassettes.
View
Cord Packer 2.0 mm
The Cord Packer is a double-ended restorative hand instrument used during gingival retraction before impression taking or crown margin finishing. Each working end presents a small flat disc offset from the shank, which lets the operator thread retraction cord into the sulcus without snagging the thread or catching the gingival cuff. Vertical sweeping strokes progressively pack the cord around the tooth while the bent shank clears the adjacent proximal surface. The silicone-sleeved ergonomic handle provides a textured low-fatigue grip during repetitive packing strokes, and the stainless-steel working ends are autoclavable for standard reprocessing. Supplied non-sterile for in-clinic sterilisation as part of a crown and bridge tray.

Form Condenser 1.5-2.5 mm
The Form Condenser is a double-ended restorative hand instrument used to compress and shape unset plastic restorative materials such as amalgam and composite inside prepared cavities. It delivers controlled apical pressure on medium to large restorative surfaces, packing material firmly against cavity walls and the cavity floor to produce a smooth, well-adapted layer ready for carving. The ergonomic silicone-sleeved handle keeps the instrument light in hand during extended restorative appointments. Manufactured from stainless steel by Equate Instruments, it is corrosion-resistant, fully autoclavable, and supplied non-sterile for in-clinic sterilisation.
