3M AlastiK C Modules, Short, Long and Continuous
Elastomeric chain modules used in orthodontic treatment, available as short chain, long chain or continuous chain in several packaging formats.
3M AlastiK C Modules are elastomeric chain used throughout orthodontic treatment to close spaces, align teeth and apply light continuous force along the archwire. This listing covers three configurations, C-1 short chain, C-2 long chain and CK continuous chain, giving orthodontists a choice of link spacing depending on how much space needs to be closed between attachment points.
The modules are supplied in several packaging options, including bobbins, spools and pre-cut lengths, so a practice can choose whichever format best suits its chairside workflow, whether that means cutting chain to length from a spool or working with a fixed length piece straight from the pack. Elastomeric chain like this is a single-use consumable, stretched and tied onto brackets during an appointment and replaced at the next adjustment as it loses tension.
AlastiK C Modules are a routine, frequently reordered item for any orthodontic practice running fixed appliance treatment.
