The AZDENT 16:1 wireless endo motor is a cordless endodontic motor for rotary and reciprocating root canal preparation. It pairs a lightweight handpiece and 16:1 reduction contra angle with 9 preset programs, a 0.3–4.0 Ncm torque range and 140–550 rpm speed control. It is available on its own, as the AZ-1 apex locator for electronic working-length measurement, or as a complete wireless endo motor with apex locator kit.
Why Choose This Cordless Endo Motor and Apex Locator
- Protects your files: Torque-limited auto-reverse and auto-stop respond to canal resistance, reducing the risk of instrument separation.
- Rotary and reciprocating in one handpiece: Continuous rotation, reverse rotation and left/right reciprocating motion cover the most common NiTi file systems.
- Truly cordless workflow: A built-in 3.7 V 800 mAh lithium battery and contact charging base keep the chair free of motor cables.
- Accurate working length: The AZ-1 apex locator uses multi-frequency measurement with automatic calibration, so readings are not affected by tooth type.
- Infection control: The 16:1 contra angle is autoclavable up to 135 °C, and the apex locator file clip, lip hook and touch probe can be steam sterilised.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 16:1 wireless endo motor used for?
It drives NiTi endodontic files during root canal preparation. The 16:1 reduction contra angle converts motor speed into the low speed and controlled torque that rotary and reciprocating files require.
Does this endo motor support reciprocating files?
Yes. Alongside continuous forward and reverse rotation, it offers a left/right reciprocating mode for reciprocating file systems.
What torque and speed does the motor deliver?
Torque is adjustable from 0.3 to 4.0 Ncm (3–40 mNm) and speed from 140 to 550 rpm across 9 programs.
Can the contra angle be autoclaved?
Yes. The 16:1 contra angle can be steam sterilised at up to 135 °C. The motor handpiece itself should only be wiped and disinfected.
How is the AZ-1 apex locator powered?
It runs on three 1.5 V batteries. Batteries are not included because of shipping restrictions, so please fit your own before first use.
Is the apex locator accurate in wet canals?
The AZ-1 uses multi-frequency measurement with automatic calibration, designed to give consistent readings across different oral environments and tooth types.
Which package should I choose?
Choose the Endo Motor if you already have an apex locator, the AZ-1 Apex Locator if you only need length measurement, or the Kit for a complete cordless endodontic setup at the best combined value.
