Rocatec™ Universal Bonding System

Rocatec™ Universal Bonding System

 

 

Overview Systems Materials Accessories

The Rocatec™ Universal Bonding System, from 3M ESPE, provides everything you need to achieve an ideal surface preparation — and excellent bond strength.

A recent study has shown that surfaces prepared with Rocatec demonstrate improved bond adhesion.¹

Rocatec’s patented formula delivers both a mechanical and chemical bond. The Rocatec system conditions the surface by fusing a unique silica layer onto the surface of a coping or restoration, creating an ideal surface for enhanced bond strength.

Summary of advantages

  • Patented formula creates an ideal surface for optimal bonding
  • Ideal for ceramics, composites, all porcelain fused-to-metals, alumina and zirconia
  • Allows bonding to normally non-retentive surfaces
  • Provides excellent bond strength without marginal gap

This is a stand-alone unit that consists primarily of a containment bowl, an air regulator, a foot control and a blasting pencil that fits right inside the armhole of your regular sandblaster. The used Rocatec material is collected with the other lab abrasive and simply discarded.

System components:

  • The blast module
  • 3 (3 kg) pouches of Rocatec™ Plus coating material
  • 1 8ml bottle of ESPE™-SIL silane
