Nance Loop Forming Pliers

Nance Loop Forming Pliers – Orthodontic Wire Forming Instrument

Designed specifically for forming precise loops in stainless steel archwires, the Nance Loop Forming Pliers enable orthodontic professionals to craft consistent 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm and 6 mm loops with ease. A built-in groove at the base of the tips helps close loops cleanly and uniformly. 

Key Features

• Multiple Loop Sizes: Allows loop formation in four standard diameters — 3 mm, 4 mm, 5 mm and 6 mm — to support different treatment needs.

• Closing-Groove Tip: A precision groove located at the base of the working tips facilitates clean loop closure and consistent shape.

• Wire Capacity Up to 0.022″ (0.56 mm): Engineered to handle stainless steel archwires up to this diameter for loop forming tasks

• High-Grade Stainless Steel Construction: Built from corrosion-resistant, durable stainless steel for long-term clinical use and repeated sterilization.

• Compact, Ergonomic Handle Design: Balanced for comfort and precision during fine wire-forming operations, reducing operator fatigue.

• Reusable & Autoclavable: Suitable for repeated sterilization cycles without loss of tip alignment or loop-forming accuracy.

Applications

• Forming loops in archwires of 3 mm to 6 mm diameter for orthodontic mechanics.

• Crafting loop-bends for retention, finishing or custom appliance work.

• Adjusting and finishing stainless steel wires in both clinical and laboratory settings.

• Use in arch-wire treatment phases where accurate loop geometry is key for tooth movement or appliance function.

Ideal For

• Orthodontists, dental technicians and assistants engaged in custom wire work and loop bending.

• Clinics and labs where multiple loop sizes and precision consistency are required.

• Teaching environments and orthodontic training programs where loop-forming technique is practiced.
