The Manual Torque Ratchet is indicated to be used with implants to ensure that correct torque is achieved during manual insertion. A lot of implants brands allow higher torque than 45 Ncm, it is especially essential during immediate loading when higher torque is very important.
Our S-Torque is excellent for installation and removal of implants, for installation and removal of healing caps, attachment’s and many more cases.
Instructions of Use
Intended Use
This wrench was designed for use in dental applications. It should only be used by qualified personnel.
It is used to screw in dental implants and to extract them at pre-adjusted torque levels.
Maintenance
The wrenches are not sterilized prior to shipping.
They must be cleaned, disinfected and sterilized before use.
When cleaning, do not use abrasive detergents and do not apply excessive pressure.
To avoid damage do not clean with a wire brush or metal pads, use only cleaning and disinfectant solutions with a PH between 5 and 10.
Please follow the cleaning/disinfectant manufacturerโs instructions (e.g. intended use, dosage, time, renewal period).
Frequent but careful cleaning has little effect on the life of the ratchet.
Product life is determined by wear.
Re-calibrate the wrench once a year. The wrench must be cleaned and sterilized after service.
Decontamination
If contamination is suspect at any time, disassemble the wrench and clean all the parts thoroughly.
Clean the parts with cold water and a soft disinfection brush until no residue is visible.
Manual Cleaning and Disinfection
Ultrasound Cleaning Bath โ
Add a cleaning solution to the ultrasonic bath. Place the parts in a wire basket and then insert the wire basket in the bath. Set the bath to 35-40 kHz and a temperature of 50โฐC. Clean for 3 minutes. Make sure that the parts are totally immersed.
Post Bath Treatment โ
Rinse the parts in cold water, preferably de-ionized water. Dry the parts on a lint-free towel.
The scale, adjusting nut, and ratchet head should be insufflated by using sterile compressed air.
Automated Cleaning and Disinfection
Washer / Disinfector โ
Place the cleaned dental torque wrench parts in a wire basket. Do not overload the basket.
Start the program. Rinsing is typically followed by a chemical cleaning at 40โฐ to 60โฐC. The chemical residue is cleaned by another rinse cycle. Corrosion due to neutralizing agents must be avoided. Disinfection is reached at 90โฐ to 95โฐC. Parts are then treated with de-ionized water followed by drying.
The parts should be removed from the washer / disinfector immediately after the end of the program.
Post-Cleaning Maintenance, Control, and Functional Testing โ
Cool the parts down to room temperature and visually inspect the parts for residues and other contamination. If necessary, repeat the cleaning process.
Apply a tiny drop of handpiece oil to the parts drawing (joint & thread)
Assemble the wrench and functionally test it.
Recommended Sterilization Method
- Loosen the ratchet completely prior to sterilization
- Method fractionated pre-vacuum process (according to ISO 17665)
- Temperature Heat up to 134โฐC (137โฐC Maximum)
- Pressure 3 pre-vacuum phases with at least 60 millibar pressure
- Holding Time at least 5 minutes
- Drying Time at least 10 minutes
- After sterilization checks the packaging of the sterilized instruments for damage. Check the sterilization indicators.
