- A high-performance, precision-engineered replacement turbine designed specifically for Lares 557 CX high-speed dental handpieces
Uses
- Direct Compatibility:
- Specifically fits the Lares 557 CX Ultralite push-button high-speed handpiece
- Performance Restoration:
- Used to replace worn-out internal rotors to eliminate vibration, excessive noise, or loss of cutting power in older Lares units
- In-Office Repair:
- Designed for quick, seamless replacement by dental staff to minimize equipment downtime
Features
- Maintenance-Free Ceramic Bearings:
- Equipped with premium ceramic bearings that are often marketed as maintenance-free (lube-free) and offer superior durability compared to steel
- Balanced Impeller:
- The rotor is dynamically and statically balanced to ensure a "true" spin, matching or exceeding OEM specifications for quiet operation
- Precision Spindle & Chuck:
- Features a push-button auto-chuck mechanism designed for high concentricity and superior bur-gripping strength
- Standard High Speed:
- Capable of reaching operational speeds of approximately 400,000 RPM
- Sterilization Ready:
- Fully autoclavable and built to withstand repeated high-temperature cycles
Benefits
- Cost Savings:
- Provides a high-quality alternative to expensive original Lares turbines, often saving the practice significantly on repair costs
- Enhanced Precision:
- Superior concentricity (exceeding ISO standards by 50%) reduces "bur chatter," leading to smoother tooth preparations and less hand fatigue for the clinician
- Improved Clinical Environment:
- Advanced silencer technology reduces the high-pitched "whine" typical of air-driven handpieces, which helps lower patient anxiety
- Reliability:
- Backed by a 6-month limited warranty against manufacturing defects
