| | Product Description | |
| No matter what cement you’re using, the Vortex™ Vacuum Mixer is clinically proven to deliver a better mix. Vortex is stirring up traditional vacuum mixers. The ergonomically angled base means a consistent homogenous mix every time. The time-saving crank – three revolutions every time you turn the handle – means less effort and less stirring, cutting down on the amount of air bubbles caused by vigorous stirring. The monomer port reduces fumes and provides a better, more consistent mix. And all of the mixer components are sterile and completely disposable.
In comparison testing against competitive mixers, Vortex delivered more cement when mixing one and two units, and slightly more when three units were used. Vortex also releases less monomer fumes than competitive mixers. But one of the most apparent differences is the mixer itself. Competitive mixers mix cement in a bowl, forcing you to transfer the cement into another chamber for syringe applications. Since cement is mostly delivered via syringe, that isn’t very practical. Vortex mixes the cement directly in the syringe delivery chamber, eliminating the extra step. And for those who prefer applying by hand, Vortex can function as a bowl, too. | |
