Stainless Steel Dappen Dish with Anti-Slip Base
The Stainless Steel Dappen Dish is a small, heavy-duty receptacle used chairside to hold liquids, bonding agents, etchants, monomers, and powders during restorative and laboratory procedures. The conical bowl channels material toward the centre for clean pick-up with a brush or applicator, while the polished inner surface resists staining and is easy to wipe clean between uses. A wide black anti-slip rubber base keeps the dish stable on glass slabs, trays, and countertops and dampens vibration when liquids are drawn by syringe or brush. Fully autoclavable and compatible with standard tray set-ups, the dish is built by Equate Instruments as a durable alternative to single-use plastic wells.

Filling Instrument C49
The C49 filling instrument is a double-ended restorative hand instrument for carrying, compacting, and contouring plastic restorative materials at the cavity site. Each working end offers a small angled flat-face paddle with a titanium-nitride coating that resists sticking to amalgam, glass-ionomer, and composite alike, so material releases cleanly from the blade and remains on the restoration. The dual angulation handles both buccal and lingual approaches without rotating between instruments. A lightweight hollow handle with alternating colour-coded bands offers a high-tactility wet grip and clear chairside identification on a busy tray. This Equate Instruments instrument is built for fully autoclavable reprocessing and supplied non-sterile for standard cassette handling.

Filling Instrument PFI 8A
The PFI 8A is a double-ended plastic filling instrument for finishing and contouring plastic restorative materials at the cavity site. Slender angled working ends offer a small paddle-style tip that sweeps excess material off a restoration and blends the margin into the cavosurface outline. Both ends are fully titanium-coated so amalgam, glass-ionomer, and composite release cleanly from the blade rather than dragging with the tip. A 9.5 mm lightweight hollow handle carries alternating blue colour-coded bands for quick chairside identification and a high-tactility wet grip. This Equate Instruments instrument is built for fully autoclavable reprocessing and supplied non-sterile for standard cassette handling.

Filling Instrument UP1 - Titanium-Nitride Hollow Handle
The UP1 filling instrument is a double-ended plastic filling hand instrument used to place, shape, and adapt direct composite and other plastic restorative materials during operative dentistry. Both working ends carry a blue titanium nitride coating that reduces material stick and improves visibility against tooth structure. The instrument is mounted on a lightweight hollow stainless-steel handle with a knurled barrel and blue accent rings. The balanced feel and secure grip reduce hand fatigue across extended restorative appointments. Supplied non-sterile by Equate Instruments and fully autoclavable for routine in-office steam sterilisation.

Plastic Filling Instrument PFI 6 - Titanium-Nitride Hollow Handle
The PFI 6 is a double-ended plastic filling instrument designed for placing and adapting composite and other plastic restorative materials. One end is a fine curved probe-style tip for detail work at cavity margins, while the other is a broad flat paddle for packing and contouring larger increments. Both working ends are titanium nitride coated to reduce sticking of composite, improve visibility against tooth structure, and preserve edge definition. The lightweight hollow stainless-steel handle is knurled with blue accent rings for a secure tactile grip. Supplied non-sterile by Equate Instruments and fully autoclavable.

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.

Excavator 65/66 - Titanium-Coated Double-Ended
The 65/66 excavator is a double-ended restorative hand instrument used to remove carious dentin, debris, and remnants of temporary fillings during cavity preparation. Each working end carries a precision-ground spoon-shaped blade angled at the classic 65/66 pattern so the operator can reach both mesial and distal cavity walls without repositioning the grip. The instrument from Equate Instruments pairs a lightweight hollow stainless-steel handle with titanium-coated working tips for added surface hardness and visual contrast against dentin. The knurled grip zones support tactile control during deliberate scooping strokes, and the full instrument is autoclavable for standard in-clinic sterilisation workflows.

Excavator 129/130 - Titanium-Coated Double-Ended
The 129/130 excavator is a double-ended restorative hand instrument used to remove carious dentin, debris, and remnants of temporary fillings during cavity preparation. Each working end carries a precision-ground spoon-shaped blade in the 129/130 pattern so the operator can address both mesial and distal cavity walls without repositioning the grip. The instrument from Equate Instruments combines a lightweight hollow stainless-steel handle with titanium-coated working tips for added surface hardness and clear visual contrast against dentin. The knurled grip zones support deliberate scooping strokes, and the full instrument is autoclavable for standard in-clinic sterilisation workflows.

Composite Knife / Carver - Non-Stick Double-Ended
This double-ended composite knife and carver is designed for removing excess material and defining anatomy during direct restorative procedures. One end is a fine curved knife-style tip for trimming interproximal flash and refining margins, while the other is an angled flat carver for sculpting cusps and grooves before light-curing. Both tips carry a non-stick coating so composite releases cleanly during carving, reducing pull-out of set or semi-set material. The stainless-steel body is mounted on a knurled hollow handle with gold accent rings for a balanced tactile grip. Supplied non-sterile by Equate Instruments and fully autoclavable for standard steam-sterilisation cycles.
