CoCrW bonding alloy for conventional, high-fusing (low expansion) ceramics. Free of nickel, lead, beryllium and cadmium. Type 4 pursuant to DIN EN ISO 22674.
High degree of purity
extremly corrosion resistant
Advantages for Dental Technicians:
System-free working due to very good alloy properties
Pleasant polishing properties and finishing due to low hardness of 285 HV10
A CTE of 14.4 enables flexibility in ceramic selection and safe veneering
Excellent metal-ceramic bonding, even without bonder
An oxidation firing can be omitted
Optimal conditions for laser welding
Application flexibility and easy melting, no sparking
