In addition, dry heat is not compatible with instruments with resin handles (Hu-Friedy handle #8), with resin or silicone components, inserts on any instruments, or with resin cassettes. The sterilizer equipment manufacturer's compatibility with specific materials must be observed.

- Although Hu-Friedy's Resin Color Instruments are made with EverEdge® technology which keeps the working ends sharper longer, at some point every scaler needs sharpening.

- No landfills, no refurbishing-instruments recycled through the Environment program are sent to metal scrap recyclers so they can find new life in other items such as bridges, car bumpers and street lights.
