EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of ISO 1797 testing. ISO 1797 specifies requirements for the dimensions and material properties of handles used for rotary or oscillating instruments in dentistry. Describes measurement methods for verifying requirements. ISO 1797 does not apply to tips that are fixed to the handpiece with a screw (e.g. scaler tips).
ISO 1797 provides precise specifications for dimensions and tolerances of threaded shanks, including length, diameter and taper measurements. This allows handles from different manufacturers to be used interchangeably with dental handpieces.
The standard outlines the requirements for materials used in the manufacture of thread stems. Additionally, it provides guidelines for marking thread shanks with basic information such as the type designation, the manufacturer's name or logo, and other relevant details.
ISO 1797 may include specifications for the mechanical properties of handles, such as strength and durability. These properties are important to ensure that the handles can withstand the mechanical stresses encountered during dental procedures.
Dental instruments, including handles, must be capable of withstanding the sterilization processes used in dental offices and clinics. The standard may include requirements regarding the compatibility of handles with sterilization methods.
Ensuring the safety of dental instruments is a critical aspect of ISO 1797. The standard may specify requirements for biocompatibility and the absence of harmful substances in the materials used for the handles.
