Amalgam and Composite Carriers: Gun-Type, Syringe and Double-Ended
A good carrier moves restorative material from the well to the prep without waste. This collection brings together five gun-type, syringe, medium and large carriers for dental practices and clinics. Prices start from $7.70, and every instrument ships from Sialkot with worldwide delivery.
Gun-Type and Syringe Carriers
Gun-type carriers dispense material with a squeeze action, which gives steady, controlled delivery. The Amalgam Carrier Gun Syringe with Straight and Curved Restorative Placement Options is our most affordable option, from $7.70, and the straight and curved choices help you reach different preparations. The Amalgam Carrier Medium Gun Type is a compact alternative at $8.80.
Medium Carriers
The Amalgam Carrier Medium 2mm has a 2mm barrel, which suits general restorations. It is priced at $13.20, and the product page lets you choose between options.
Large and Double-Ended Carriers
For larger preparations, a bigger barrel carries more material per pass. The Amalgam Carrier Regular Large and the Amalgam Carrier Double Ended Large are both $13.20. The double-ended version gives you two working ends in one instrument, which means fewer instrument changes. Please contact us for availability on these two.
Choosing the Right Carrier
Think about the size of the preparation and how you like to work. A smaller barrel gives more control, a larger barrel moves more material, and a gun-type carrier dispenses with one hand. Check each product page for barrel sizes and options, and for which restorative materials each carrier suits.
Complete Your Restorative Tray
Carriers work with the rest of the restorative set. For a wider choice of barrel sizes, angles and lengths, see our full amalgam carriers range, which has 25 patterns. After placement, you will need amalgam pluggers to condense the material, along with carvers and burnishers to shape and finish it.
Care and Handling
Clean carriers promptly after use, before material sets in the barrel or on the tip. Check that the tip is clear and that the mechanism moves smoothly before each case. Replace any carrier that no longer dispenses cleanly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an amalgam carrier used for?
It carries restorative material to the prepared cavity so it can be placed and condensed.
What is the difference between a gun-type and a double-ended carrier?
A gun-type carrier dispenses material with a squeeze action. A double-ended carrier has a working end on each side, so you can change size without changing instruments.
Which barrel size should I choose?
Smaller barrels give more control for small preparations, and larger barrels carry more material per pass. The Medium 2mm is a good general choice.
Can I use these carriers with composite?
The collection covers both amalgam and composite carriers, but materials differ by instrument. Check each product page or contact us before ordering.
What are your shipping, return and OEM terms?
Orders over $99 ship free. See our Help & FAQs for details, or contact us about OEM requests.
