RocatecT Universal Bonding System
 
  • Overview
  • Systems
  • Materials
  • Accessories
The Rocatec™ Universal Bonding System, from 3M ESPE, provides everything you need to achieve an ideal surface preparation - and excellent bond strength.
A recent study has shown that surfaces prepared with Rocatec demonstrate improved bond adhesion.¹

Rocatec’s patented formula delivers both a mechanical and chemical bond. The Rocatec system conditions the surface by fusing a unique silica layer onto the surface of a coping or restoration, creating an ideal surface for enhanced bond strength.

Summary of advantages

- Patented formula creates an ideal surface for optimal bonding
- Ideal for ceramics, composites, all porcelain fused-to-metals, alumina and zirconia
- Allows bonding to normally non-retentive surfaces
- Provides excellent bond strength without marginal gap
