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 50.

Frequently asked questions

Are these scissors safe for use directly on patients?

Yes, these scissors feature a flattened, wide, blunt tip specifically designed to glide under clothing or bandages while minimizing the risk of skin injury. Please note that they are strictly intended for cutting non-sterile materials and should not be used on human tissue or sutures.

Do these blades handle tough materials like casts?

Absolutely. The high-performance blade design features one precision-serrated edge that grips the material, paired with a smooth blade to ensure a clean, efficient cut through bulky items like dressings, medical tape, and casts.

Are these comfortable to hold for extended periods?

The scissors are designed for ergonomic control. They feature a specialized handle style with one oversized finger ring, which allows for superior grip and leverage during high-precision cutting tasks.

Is the material high-quality stainless steel?

Yes, these utility scissors are constructed from durable stainless steel, ensuring they are robust enough for daily clinical tasks while remaining cost-effective as part of Sklar’s floor-grade, disposable line.

Can I use these if I have a latex allergy?

Yes, these scissors are 100% latex-free. They are not manufactured with natural rubber latex, making them a safe choice for environments with latex-sensitive staff or patients.

What is the primary benefit of the angled design?

The angled blade configuration is intentionally engineered to improve visibility and ergonomics, making it much easier to navigate around bulky dressings or awkward angles when cutting emergency clothing.

Are these scissors sterile right out of the box?

No, these are non-sterile instruments. They are intended for use on non-sterile materials only, such as medical drapes, dressings, and clothing.

How many scissors come in a single case?

Each purchase consists of a case of 50 individual units, providing a reliable, cost-effective solution for busy emergency rooms, surgical wards, or medical supply carts.

Are these reliable enough for trauma kits?

Yes, they are ideal for trauma kits due to their utilitarian and high-visibility magenta handles, which make them easy to locate in an emergency. Their rugged design is specifically intended to handle the demands of clinical and emergency environments.

What is the warranty coverage for these disposables?

Despite being part of the disposable floor-grade line, these instruments are backed by a lifetime warranty, reflecting the high manufacturing standards of the Sklar brand.
