To evaluate the shank-to-flute ratio in rotary nickeltitanium (NiTi) instruments. The instruments had a shank percentage measurement value equal to or greater than the flute percentage value; the cross-sectional shank-to-flute ratio was preserved. The instruments had similar shank areas, but the flute area of the Quantec instruments was twice their shank area; i.e. the design of the Quantec files provides longitudinal reinforcement by means of a gain in flute area.
