The Paste Carrier is a precision-engineered instrument used with a slow-speed handpiece to uniformly deliver and distribute root canal sealers, cements, or medicated pastes (like calcium hydroxide) into the canal system. Its unique spiral wire design creates a "centrifugal" action that pushes the material against the canal walls and toward the apex, ensuring a thorough and void-free seal.

Features
Spiral Wire Design: The thin, twisted wire allows for the efficient and controlled flow of viscous materials into narrow spaces.
Safety Spring Mechanism: High-quality versions often feature a tight spring at the base of the shank. This acts as a shock absorber, providing flexibility and reducing the risk of the instrument breaking inside a curved canal.
Uniform Distribution: The rotation of the spiral ensures that the paste is applied evenly along the entire length of the canal walls, which is critical for a successful endodontic outcome.
Handpiece Compatibility: These instruments are designed with a standard latch-type shank for easy connection to dental slow-speed contra-angle handpieces.
