If the head drive is oiled too infrequently, this not only leads to increased wear in the ball bearings, but also promotes corrosion in the head housing and on the head drive. Any residues of disinfectant, grinding particles and abrasion are not completely rinsed out (see illustration).
Deposits and rust formation occur.
The service life of instruments can be significantly increased by sufficient daily oiling. In our opinion, manual oiling of the collet is a very effective preventative measure.
We recommend high-quality branded oil for dental instruments. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
