LTL Advantage

Maintenance Free bearings are the first high-speed, self-lubricating dental bearings to combine superior wear resistance with exceptional autoclave resistance.

These new premium bearings raise handpiece standards: smoother operation, longer life and maintenance-free performance.

Maintenance Free bearings let dentists focus on patient care. Dental professionals no longer have to purge and lubricate handpieces to maintain optimum performance. The savings in time and money can be significant. The typical dental office, doing 30 procedures a day, spends 44 hours a month, 528 hours per year, cleaning and lubricating handpieces.

Tighter tolerances ensure better fit, reduce radial play variation and lessen vibration and noise to ensure greater customer satisfaction.

The critical components of Maintenance Free bearings meet ABEC 9 specifications.

Regular Bearings have 8 balls in an open cage held in with a wire clip.

These bearings require both oil and cleaners. Oil for lubrication and cleaners to remove the oil residue which attracts dirt.

Abec 7 rated bearings.

The use of oils and cleaners along with errors in maintenance protocol not only shortens the life of both turbines and bearings but also degrades tubings and controls by blowing residual oil back through your equipment.

LTL bearings have 7 balls in a sealed cage with a lifetime lubrication. No oiling or cleaning required.

Less balls means more room for a thicker, stronger bearing and turbine assembly. Made from Durasteel metal for sturdier construction with Abec 9 rated bearings. The highest rating currently available.

Turbines have a 30% longer life due to the lack of cleansers and oil needed for maintenance.

The higher grade construction of LTL turbines results in a stronger chucking system meaning less turbine replacements due to loose burs.

Due to the sealed nature of the LTL bearings and the elimination of oils for lubrication, there is less risk of these contaminants affecting the integrity of dental procedures. Resulting in fewer return visits due to patient dissatisfaction that then must be corrected by the doctor free of charge.
