Description

A 6-Pin LED Coupler for Fiber Optic Delivery Systems

The Flight QC-170K is a KaVo-compatible quick disconnect coupler with LED illumination on a 6-hole, 6-pin connection. Where the delivery system already carries power to the handpiece, this is the coupler that uses it - steady light output that does not depend on air flow.

Key Features and Benefits

  • 6-pin, 6-hole connection - for delivery systems wired for optics
  • LED illumination - powered by the unit, not generated at the coupler
  • KaVo-compatible - fits fiber optic handpieces on KaVo-style couplers
  • Quick disconnect - handpiece off in one motion at turnover
  • Shared O-ring kit - MK Dent OR4011BWK

Clinical and Workflow Advantages

On a 6-hole system the power is already at the handpiece end, so a powered LED coupler gives consistent illumination regardless of how hard the handpiece is running. That consistency is the practical difference from a self-generating coupler, and it matters most on longer preparations where light quality should not vary with the procedure.

Why Choose the Flight QC-170K

It is the 6-hole counterpart to Flight's coupler range, at a fraction of OEM replacement cost. Practices on 4-hole tubing want the QC-165K E-generator instead - the two are not interchangeable. DentalMarketplace is an authorized US dealer.

FAQs

Flight KaVo Compatible Coupler With Self-illuminating E-Generator Optic - 6 Pin Connector

Q: What is a 6-pin coupler?

A: It takes both drive air and electrical power through a six-hole connection, with the LED powered by the delivery unit rather than generated at the coupler.

Q: Will it fit my 4-hole tubing?

A: No. Six-pin means six-hole tubing. On a 4-hole system the QC-165K E-generator is the coupler that gives you light.

Q: Which handpieces does it fit?

A: KaVo-compatible fiber optic high-speed handpieces.

Q: Why choose 6-pin LED over an E-generator?

A: Where the delivery system already supplies power, an externally powered LED gives consistent output that does not depend on air flow through the handpiece.

Q: How does it compare with the QC-164K?

A: The QC-164K is non-optic on 4-hole tubing. This is the illuminated coupler for 6-hole systems. They are not interchangeable in either direction.

Q: What maintenance does it need?

A: O-rings, via the shared MK Dent OR4011BWK kit. Replacing them at the first sign of a leak prevents water tracking back into the tubing.

Q: Is the LED replaceable?

A: LED assemblies in couplers are generally not user-serviceable. Call us before ordering parts if output has dropped.

Q: Do I need an adapter for a Sirona or NSK handpiece?

A: This is the KaVo-compatible fitting. Handpieces built for other coupling types need the coupler that matches them - call and we will confirm.

Q: What warranty applies?

A: Manufacturer warranty applies through an authorized US dealer.
