Mid-sized, securely mounted, and finished in rhodium — the NES-1136 is the 22mm middle child of the cone-socket rhodium trio, sitting between the compact Fig. 3 and the wider Fig. 5 options. It’s often the size clinicians settle on when they want one mirror that handles both anterior and posterior work reasonably well, rather than switching sizes mid-procedure.
The rhodium surface is the headline feature carried across this sub-line: a coating chosen specifically for its resistance to the gradual clouding that standard mirror glass develops after repeated high-heat sterilization. Pair that with the cone-socket thread — which keeps the head firmly seated on the handle instead of loosening with wear — and you get a diagnostic instrument built to perform consistently over a longer working life than entry-level mirrors typically manage.
Quick specs:
Head: Fig. 4, 22mm, rhodium-coated
Fitting: Cone-socket, threaded
Material: Surgical-grade stainless steel
Sterilization: Fully autoclavable
Price: $1.35
A solid choice for general practices, hygiene appointments, and restorative work where reflection quality and long-term durability matter more than the lowest per-unit cost — and for clinics already using cone-socket handles who want the rhodium upgrade in their mid-size mirror.
