Overview
OA-0305 is an alternate catalog ID for elastic power chain. Full clinical and technical details: see Power chain.
Common variants & modifications
- Short-link: links close together; maximum force; rapid space
closure
- Medium-link: standard link spacing; balanced force
- Long-link: widest spacing; lightest force; finishing and
consolidation
- Colored power chain: available in all colors; same mechanics as
natural
- Figure-8 variant: alternating figure-8 pattern for combined
ligation and force delivery
