Description

Econo Sterile Littauer Wireform Scissors are a ready-to-use, sterile, disposable, floor-grade instrument. They are primarily used for suture removal. These finger ring scissors have a small hook shaped tip on one blade that slides under sutures to slightly lift them before cutting for removal. This hook also holds the suture so it does not slip off the blade of the scissors prior to cutting. They should not be used for cutting tissue. This product is straight with smooth, sharp/sharp tips, and an overall length of 4-1/2 inches. It is sold in a case of 50.

Frequently asked questions

Are these scissors ready to use immediately?

Yes, these scissors arrive sterile and ready for immediate use. Being disposable, they are an excellent choice for environments where you need to save time on sterilization processing while minimizing contamination risks.

How does the hook feature help during suture removal?

The integrated hook on one of the blades is specifically engineered to:

Slide effortlessly under the suture material.
Lift the suture slightly away from the skin.
Hold the thread securely in place so it does not slip while you make a precise cut.

Are these scissors safe for cutting tissue?

No, these scissors are strictly intended for cutting sutures only. They are not designed or sharpened for use on human tissue; using them for anything other than suture removal could compromise the integrity of the tool or the safety of the procedure.

Is the material free of natural rubber latex?

Yes, these scissors are 100% latex-free. They are manufactured from stainless steel, ensuring they are safe for use on patients with latex sensitivities.

What does floor grade quality mean for this instrument?

Floor grade refers to high-quality, single-use instruments that are cost-effective for high-volume or non-critical clinical settings. They provide the reliable performance needed for professional suture removal without the long-term maintenance requirements of reusable surgical instruments.

How many units come in a single order?

Each order consists of a full case containing 50 individual, sterile-packed scissors. This quantity makes them highly convenient for stocking busy surgical or wound care clinics.

Are these scissors TAA compliant?

Yes, the Econo Sterile Littauer Wireform Scissors are TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, meeting the necessary requirements for federal procurement and government-related health contracts.

Are the tips sharp enough for precise work?

Yes, these scissors feature sharp/sharp (S/S) tips. This configuration, combined with the smooth working edge, allows for clean, precise cutting of suture materials.

Do these scissors require any special cleaning or sterilization?

No. Because these instruments are single-use and disposable, they are intended to be discarded after a single procedure. This design eliminates the need for cleaning, sharpening, or autoclave sterilization after use.

Is the stainless steel durable enough for professional use?

Yes, they are crafted from durable stainless steel. While they are designed for single-use to ensure sterility and convenience, the construction is robust enough to provide precise, reliable performance for the duration of a clinical procedure.
