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 patient skin?

Yes. These scissors are specifically designed with a flattened, wide, blunt tip on the serrated blade. This safety feature is engineered to minimize the risk of accidental skin nicks when cutting bandages or clothing directly on a patient.

How do the blades handle tough materials?

The scissors feature a dual-blade design that combines two styles for maximum cutting efficiency: <ul><li>Serrated blade: Grips material to prevent slippage.</li><li>Smooth blade: Provides a clean, precise cut.</li></ul>This combination is ideal for reliably cutting dressings, casts, and drapes.

Is the handle designed for better control?

Yes, the scissors utilize asymmetrical finger rings. One ring is significantly larger than the other, which is designed to provide the operator with superior leverage and control during repetitive cutting tasks.

Are these scissors made of high-quality stainless steel?

Yes, they are manufactured from durable stainless steel. While they are classified as Econo floor-grade for disposable use, the material ensures the structural integrity and reliability expected for a high-quality single-use instrument.

Can I use these for surgical procedures?

No, these are utility scissors intended strictly for cutting non-sterile materials such as casts, dressings, and drapes. They must never be used to cut tissue or sutures.

Do these scissors contain any latex?

Are they supplied in sterile packaging?

How many units come in a single purchase?

Each purchase includes a bulk box of 12 units (BX 12). This packaging is designed to support the supply needs of busy clinical environments, first aid stations, and emergency preparedness kits.

What is the primary benefit of the Econo grade design?

The Econo grade classification provides a highly cost-effective solution for high-volume, non-sterile applications. It offers the functionality of a professional-grade utility scissor while remaining disposable, eliminating the need for costly sterilization cycles.
