Meet the Instrument Makers THE MAKING OF EVEREDGE ™ 2.0 TECHNOLOGY
Martin Schnekenburger and Neville Hammond began making dental instruments in the 1960s. Because HuFriedyGroup is so invested in creating the sharpest scaler for our customers, we knew we had to tap into their combined 100 years of experience in order to find the best solution. Martin and Neville crafted what has become EverEdge™ 2.0 Scalers, and taught our HuFriedyGroup artisans to recreate these sharp edges for you.

EverEdge™ 2.0 Scalers THE SHARPEST AND LONGEST-LASTING SCALERS FOR YOUR CLINICAL PROCEDURES
Stays Sharper Even Longer EverEdge™ 2.0 Technology uses a new, optimized heat control process in order to maintain the hard, sharp edge. This heat control, plus several manufacturing intricacies in the HuFriedyGroup proprietary process, provide the durability needed for effective procedures and continued use. New Finely-Honed Finish EverEdge™ Scalers are sharp… EverEdge™ 2.0 Scalers are even sharper. Using an enhanced finishing process, Our professional artisans are creating edges that are scientifically measured to be over 60% sharper than the next closest competitor. Less force means easier, more comfortable scaling for the clinician and patient. Uncoated Performance With our EverEdge™ Technology, our proprietary processing ensures that the superior edge retention & wear characteristics of EverEdge™ 2.0 Scalers will last the entire life of the instrument. Since it’s not a superficial coating, these characteristics can’t be sharpened or scraped away. EverEdge™ 2.0 Scalers can be resharpened at any point to extend their life. Revolutionary Testing System We have invested in a custom blade evaluation system to ensure clinicians are receiving the sharpest possible instruments. Blades from every batch of EverEdge™ 2.0 Scalers are tested right off the factory line to confirm that the sharpness value remains in our target range, averaging 5 newtons of force required to cut the test material.

EverEdge ™ 2.0 Scalers vs The Competitors WHO TESTED THE INSTRUMENTS? Independent testing was conducted by CATRA, a specialized blade laboratory. They evaluated HuFriedyGroup EverEdge ™ 2.0 Scalers alongside four competitors’ instruments.
HOW WERE THE INSTRUMENTS TESTED? The blade of each instrument was tested by repeatedly pushing it into a specially calibrated silicone test strip. The amount of force required to push the blade into the test media was measured in Newtons, a common international unit used to measure tension and shear force. The less force required to penetrate the media indicates a sharper blade.
The blades of each instrument were also subjected to multiple strokes on the same calibrated test strip to simulate wear. These repeated strokes will begin to reduce the sharpness of the blade and therefore require

72%
more force to enter the test strip. After a predetermined amount of strokes is applied, the force to make the final cut is measured to determine the sharpness durability of the blade.
Sharper Out of the Box Than the Next Closest Competitor. AND After 500 Strokes It’s...
63% Sharper than American Eagle
56% Sharper than LM
50% Sharper than PDT

WHY DO SOME INSTRUMENTS SHOW AN INITIAL SPIKE IN SHARPNESS? An initial spike in sharpness is caused by unwanted burr formation on the cutting edge. A burr is a small piece of metal that is attached to the blade. Burr formations occur when a finishing step is done too quickly or not at all—an indication of poor process control. EverEdge™ 2.0 Scalers do not have burr formations due to our refined process—allowing them to start out sharp and stay sharper longer.
