Popis: The aim of this study was to make a comparison between the cyclic fatigue (CF) resistance of F360, twisted files (TF), FlexMaster (FM) and RaCE instruments with 4% taper. A total of 40 instruments were evaluated 8 mm from the tip. A stainless steel block with a simulated canal of 1.5 mm diameter, and a 60° angle of curvature was tested using CF testing. One-way ANOVA and posthoc Tukey's test (P 0.05). F360 instruments with a double S cross-section had the highest CF resistance among the group. The TF led the NiTi rotary files to be more resistant to fatigue than the FM and RaCE instruments.
