Description

An External-Water Latch Head for Push-Button Contra Angles

The Flight FFB-HEAD is a replacement latch-type head for Flight E-type contra angle sheaths, with a push-button chuck and external water. It accepts latch-type CA burs at 2.35 mm. This is the head alone - the component that actually wears - so a worn or noisy contra angle goes back to service without buying the whole handpiece again.

Key Features and Benefits

  • Latch-type head - takes CA latch bur, 2.35 mm
  • Push-button chuck - bur changes without a key or wrench
  • External water - matches the water configuration of your existing sheath and motor
  • Head only - the wearing component, priced as a part rather than a handpiece
  • Fits Flight E-type contra angle sheaths - keep the sheath you own

Clinical and Workflow Advantages

Bearings and chucks are what fail on a low speed contra angle; the sheath rarely does. Stocking a spare head means a handpiece that goes rough on a Tuesday is back in rotation the same week instead of sitting in a repair queue. For a practice running several operatories, one shelf spare covers all of them.

Why Choose the Flight FFB-HEAD

This is the manufacturer's own head, not a compatible-fit substitute, so tolerances and the push-button mechanism match the sheath as designed. DentalMarketplace is an authorized US dealer, which is what keeps the warranty and the part provenance intact.

What's Included

  • One FFB-HEAD latch-type contra angle head, external water, push-button chuck
  • Not included: contra angle sheath, burs. This is the head only

Warranty and Support

One year manufacturer warranty. Flight warrants handpieces for one year from date of purchase, on parts, workmanship and materials. Each unit must be registered with Flight separately. Call 833-303-7399 if you want the water configuration and sheath fit confirmed before ordering.

FAQs

Flight Latch Type Contra Angle Head for External Water - FFB-HEAD

Q: Is the FFB-HEAD a complete handpiece?

A: No. This is the head only. It seats onto a Flight contra angle sheath - order the sheath separately if you do not already have one on the bench.

Q: What bur does it take?

A: CA latch bur, 2.35 mm, held by a push-button chuck.

Q: Is the water internal or external?

A: External water.

Q: Why replace the head rather than the whole handpiece?

A: Heads carry the bearings and the chuck, which is what wears. Swapping the head restores the handpiece at a fraction of replacing it, and you keep the sheath you already own.

Q: How does the push-button chuck work?

A: Press the button, the bur releases; insert the next one and it seats. No chuck key, no wrench, no interruption mid-procedure.

Q: What is the difference between the FFB-HEAD and the FFB-Y-HEAD?

A: Bur type. The FFB-HEAD is a latch head for 2.35 mm CA burs; the FFB-Y-HEAD is an FG head for 1.60 mm friction-grip burs. Both run external water.

Q: Will it fit a non-Flight sheath?

A: It is built for Flight E-type contra angle sheaths. Call us with your sheath model before ordering if you are pairing it with another brand.

Q: What warranty applies?

A: One year. DentalMarketplace is an authorized US dealer for Flight.

Q: How do I know which water configuration I need?

A: Match the head to the sheath and motor you run. An external-water system carries the spray line outside the handpiece; an internal-water system routes it through the body. Mixing the two will not deliver spray to the bur.
