The Fisher & Paykel Solo Nasal CPAP Mask With A Retractable Headgear is the world’s first AutoFit CPAP Mask. Featuring ground-breaking retractable headgear technology that holds the mask in place without conventional straps or clips and a touch-to-adjust cushion seal, the Solo Nasal delivers comfort and simplicity. AutoLock™ Headgear Technology Fisher & Paykel’s first-of-a-kind AutoLock technology makes mask fitting and adjustment easier than ever. Simply stretch the headgear over your head and gently push the cushion into your nose to engage the AutoLock mechanism. AutoLock gently tightens the headgear to achieve optimal fit and self-adjusts throughout the night, holding the mask securely in place. For ultimate simplicity, the one-size-fits-all AutoLock headgear is compatible with all nasal cushion sizes. The AutoLock headgear eliminates conventional side straps and clips that can lead to overtightening, leaving red marks on your face. Magnet-Free Designed to make mask fitting simpler for everyone, the Solo Nasal is completely magnet-free and perfect for users with metallic medical implants. Dynamic Support Seal The F&P Solo nasal cushion features Dynamic Support Technology which keeps the cushion comfortably in place as you move. Resting gently under the nose for maximal comfort, the minimal contact nasal cushion comes in four sizes (small, medium, large, and wide) to ensure a perfect fit for everyone. All nasal cushions are interchangeable with the Solo’s standard size mask frame.

Bur Extractor Tool is designed to help you remove the smallest of burs from your Vortex F5 Carver. We found very small steel needle nose pliers works best. These heat treated steel needle nose pliers is the perfect tool for removing the small burs like the FG-33½ or FG-¼. These needle nose pliers feature a nonslip comfort grip and a drop forged construction for added durability.
Directions: 1) Twist Vortex F5 cap to the open position. 2) Grip “shaft” of bur with Extractor Tool. 3) Carefully nudge the bur from the spindle. 4) Replace bur by wiping the shaft clean. 5) Seat bur completely into the spindle. 6) Twist Vortex F5 cap to the close position.
Why We Use Ceramic Bearings
Ceramic Bearings are ideal for the Vortex F5. They are superior to common steel bearings in many ways. Ceramic is the ideal material for obtaining higher RPM (faster speed).
Ceramic balls need less lubricant and have a greater hardness than steel balls. This contributes to increased bearing life. Thermal properties of ceramic balls are more superior than steel resulting in less heat generation at higher speeds.
Ceramic bearing assemblies use ceramic balls but they are constructed with steel inner and outer rings. Ceramic balls weigh up to 40% less than steel balls. This reduces centrifugal loading so ceramic bearings can operate up to 50% faster. Also, the outer race groove exerts less force against the ball as the bearing spins, reducing the friction and rolling resistance. The final results, ceramic balls allows the bearing to spin faster and uses less energy to maintain rotational speed.
By not having to insert burs by bear down on a hard surface like other carving tools, radial bearings can be utilized instead of angular bearings. Radial bearings are better suited for carving on their sides. Angular bearings which are primarily used in a vertical position and drilling.
Permanently Lubed for Life Turbine Bearings
Within the nosecone of the Vortex F5, there is a turbine bearing assembly. The bearings are permanently lubed and never need oiling. Warning: using an in-line mist fog oiler or placing drops of oil or cleaner into the hose may cause damage to the carver and void the warranty.
