Description

Econo Utility Scissors are a multipurpose instrument used for cutting non-sterile materials such as dressings, casts, and surgical drapes. The flattened, wide, blunt tip on the serrated blade greatly reduces the likelihood of skin being nicked if the scissors are used for cutting material that is on the patient, such as clothing or bandages. They should never be used to cut tissue or sutures. These scissors feature plastic finger ring handles with one ring that is larger than the other. Econo instruments are Sklar's floor-grade, disposable instruments and are sold in bulk quantities. This product is angled with one serrated and one smooth edge, blunt/blunt tips, and a length of 7-1/2 inches. It has black handles and is sold in boxes of 12.

Frequently asked questions

Are these scissors safe to use near skin?

Yes, these scissors are specifically engineered for patient safety. The serrated blade features a flattened, wide, blunt tip designed to significantly reduce the risk of accidental skin nicks when cutting bandages, tape, or clothing directly on a patient.

Can these be used to cut through tough materials?

Absolutely. The hybrid blade configuration—combining one serrated edge for superior grip and one smooth edge for a clean cutting motion—makes them highly effective for cutting through dressings, casts, and surgical drapes.

Are these scissors comfortable to hold for long periods?

Yes, they feature ergonomic plastic finger ring handles. The rings are asymmetrical, with one ring sized larger than the other, which helps provide a more comfortable, secure, and intuitive grip during use.

Are these made from latex-free materials?

Yes, these Econo Multi-Cut Utility Scissors are not made with natural rubber latex, making them a safe choice for environments with latex-sensitive patients or staff.

Do I need to sharpen these after use?

No, these are disposable, single-use instruments. They are part of Sklar’s Econo floor-grade line, designed to provide reliable utility at an economical price point, eliminating the need for cleaning or sharpening protocols.

What is the primary material used for the blades?

The blades are constructed from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring they are robust and functional for your cutting tasks despite their disposable classification.

Are these suitable for emergency response kits?

Yes, these are highly recommended for medical, first aid, trauma, and emergency response kits. Their disposable nature and safe, blunt-tip design make them ideal for fast-paced, high-volume environments.

Can I use these to cut sutures or tissue?

No. These are strictly intended for non-sterile utility tasks such as cutting dressings, casts, and clothing. They should never be used for cutting sutures or biological tissue.

What comes in each package?

Each box contains 12 individual utility scissors, providing a cost-effective bulk solution for clinical settings or supply cabinets.

Is the design angled for better reach?

Yes, the scissors feature an angled configuration, which is specifically designed to improve visibility and ease of use when cutting materials against a surface or on a patient.
