Description

Econo Utility Scissors are a multipurpose instrument used for cutting non-sterile materials such as dressings, casts, and surgical drapes. These scissors are angled and have one serrated blade and one smooth blade. 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. One plastic finger ring is larger than the other for maximized control while cutting. Econo instruments are Sklar's floor-grade, disposable instruments and are sold in bulk quantities. This item is sold in boxes of 12.

Frequently asked questions

Are these scissors safe for use near skin?

Yes, these scissors feature a flattened, wide, blunt tip on the serrated blade specifically engineered to minimize the risk of accidental skin nicks when cutting dressings or drapes directly on a patient.

Can I use these scissors to cut surgical tissue?

No, these are non-sterile utility scissors designed exclusively for cutting non-sterile materials such as bandages, drapes, and casts. They should not be used for cutting skin, tissue, or sutures.

Why is the blade design mixed between serrated and smooth?

The dual-blade design provides optimized cutting control:

  • The serrated blade grips materials to prevent slipping.
  • The smooth blade ensures a clean, controlled cut through varied materials.
Are these made from high-quality materials?

Yes, despite being designed for single-use, these scissors are constructed from durable stainless steel to ensure structural integrity and reliability during your cutting tasks.

Does the handle design help with grip control?

Absolutely. The scissors are designed with asymmetrical finger rings—one ring is larger than the other—to provide superior ergonomics and increased control for the user during cutting procedures.

Do these contain any natural rubber latex?

No, these utility scissors are 100% latex-free, making them a safe choice for environments where latex sensitivities are a concern.

Are these suitable for a high-volume clinical environment?

Yes, they are ideal for high-volume settings. Being disposable and sold in a bulk box of 12, they help streamline cleanup and ensure you always have a fresh, functional tool on hand.

Is the 7-inch size versatile enough for daily tasks?

The 7-inch length is the standard for multi-purpose utility, offering enough leverage to cut through thicker items like light casting materials or multiple layers of fabric while remaining compact enough for precise maneuvers.

Is this a sterile product?

No, these instruments are non-sterile. They are specifically intended for general, non-sterile utility applications in clinical, veterinary, or first-aid settings.

Are they easy to identify in a busy workspace?

Yes, the unique magenta-colored accents on the handles allow for quick and easy identification, helping you keep track of your tools in a fast-paced environment.
