Glass Slab

The Glass Slab is a precision dental instrument that delivers reliable, reproducible results across a wide range of clinical workflows. Its clear borosilicate construction allows dentists to view restorative material behavior with confidence, reducing guesswork during fabrication.

Designed specifically for the Pakistani dental supply market, the Glass Slab fits seamlessly into standard procedures like model mounting, finish polishing, and occlusion verification. Its consistent performance enables teams to maintain high standards while keeping treatment times efficient.

Key Features

• High‑grade borosilicate glass, resistant to thermal shock and chemical attack.
• Precision dimensions: 30 mm × 30 mm with a flat 3 mm thick base for stable handling.
• Laser‑etched reference grid on one face for accurate alignment during mounting.
• Edge‑frosted finish reduces chipping during repeated sterilization cycles.
• Transparent surface allows direct visualization of underlying substrates.
• Sterilizable by autoclave, high‑temperature plasma, and chemical disinfectants.
• Compatible with universal bonding agents and resin composites.
• Standardised weight (≈ 45 g) to match industry handling equipment.
• Certified non‑reactive against common dental acids.
• Available in bulk lots of 100 units for laboratory throughput.
