Retain-It® Flat Braid Steel Wire is a fully annealed 302 stainless steel orthodontic retainer wire designed for bonded lingual retainers and long-term post-orthodontic retention. The flat, braided construction provides superior adaptability, strength, and patient comfort when fabricating permanent or semi-permanent fixed retainers.

Engineered for predictable bonding to the lingual surfaces of anterior teeth, this low-profile flat braid wire adapts easily to the natural contour of the lower arch while maintaining excellent stability of tooth position following orthodontic treatment.
