Orthodontic Crimpable Cross Tubes (also known as piggyback tubes). These are small, precision-engineered metal components that are crimped onto an existing orthodontic archwire to facilitate the attachment of auxiliary appliances
12 Pcs - Pack
Clinical Applications
Cross tubes are designed with two perpendicular channels. One side is crimped onto the main archwire, while the other side provides a secure slot (typically 0.022 inches) for secondary wires or attachments.
Primary Function: They allow for the easy connection of auxiliary and custom attachments, such as piggyback wires, T-loops, or Temporary Anchorage Devices (TADs), directly to the main archwire without needing to replace the entire setup.
Design: The “inserted” or cross-shaped structure is compact and streamlined to minimize patient discomfort and irritation during treatment.
Material: Most high-quality cross tubes are manufactured from stainless steel for durability and biocompatibility
