Description

45° Surgical Head With Fiber Optics for KaVo-Style Couplings

The Flight F-160K brings a 45-degree surgical head to operatories already standardised on KaVo-type couplings. Fiber optics carry light from the coupler to the working end, three spray ports cool the bur, and 21 watts of power drive the head through bone and sectioning work. The head measures Ø12.5 x H 13.6 mm.

Key Features and Benefits

  • 45-degree surgical head for third molar, periodontal and endodontic access
  • Head dimensions Ø12.5 x H 13.6 mm
  • Fiber optic light transmission from the coupler
  • KaVo-compatible backend — fits a KaVo-type coupling
  • Three spray ports for coolant coverage at the surgical bur
  • 21 watts of cutting power

Clinical and Workflow Advantages

  • Angled access to distal third molars without levering against adjacent structures
  • Fiber optics place illumination at the site rather than relying on overhead light
  • Three-port spray keeps coolant on the bur during sustained bone removal
  • Slots into an existing KaVo-coupling inventory without changing tubing

Why Choose This Handpiece

The F-160 covers the same 45-degree surgical geometry with a self-generating LED on a 4-hole line. The F-160K exists for the practice whose operatories already run KaVo-type couplings — it uses the coupler you have rather than introducing a second connection standard. Against the F-163K torque head, which shares the Ø12.5 mm head shell, the F-160K trades 4 watts of power for the 45-degree angle.

FAQs

Flight 45 Degree Surgical Head Highspeed Handpiece with Fiber Optic

Q: Does a coupler come with the F-160K?

A: No. It carries a KaVo-compatible backend and fits a KaVo-type coupling, which is purchased separately. Flight makes matching couplers in 4-hole and 6-hole configurations.

Q: What is the head size?

A: Ø12.5 x H 13.6 mm. Flight's dealer sheet labels this a mini head, but the measurement in that same row is the larger head shell — the same shell the F-163K torque head uses. The dimension is the specification; the label is loose.

Q: How does the F-160K differ from the F-160?

A: Both are 45-degree surgical heads. The F-160K is 21 W with three spray ports and fiber optics through a KaVo-type coupler. The F-160 is 19 W with a single spray port and generates its own LED power on a plain 4-hole line.

Q: Why choose a 45-degree head over a standard head?

A: Angulation. A standard head has to approach a distal third molar through a path that adjacent teeth and the ascending ramus often block. The 45-degree head changes the approach angle so the bur reaches the site.

Q: Is 21 watts sufficient for bone removal?

A: Yes, 21 W is the standard power band for surgical high speed work. Where the procedure is dominated by heavy sectioning rather than access, the 25 W F-163K torque head delivers more power in the same head shell.

Q: Can I use it with a non-KaVo coupler?

A: The backend is built to a KaVo-type coupling. Fitting a coupler from another standard is not something we can verify for you — confirm the coupling standard in your operatory before ordering.

Q: At $585.95, how does it compare with the rest of the line?

A: It sits at the same price as the F-161K, F-162K and F-163K, which share the fiber-optic KaVo backend and differ only by head geometry and power. The choice between them is clinical, not budgetary.

Q: How many spray ports does it have?

A: Three. The F-161K and F-162K carry four; the F-163K torque head carries three like this one.

Q: Does it ship from the United States?

A: Yes, from our US warehouse, with warranty coordination through DentalMarketplace.
