Description

Sklar's Posi-Locking Instrument Holder is used to securely hold instruments such as hemostatic forceps, needle holders, and scissors in the open position during sterilization. Once aligned, a locking mechanism ensures the instruments do not slide off the holder. While the locking mechanism provides secure placement of the instruments during cleaning, transporting, and storage, it also makes removal of the instruments slightly more difficult when preparing for a procedure than if a non-locking instrument stringer were used. Multiple sizes of the Posi Locking holder are available depending on the volume of instruments being used. This product is 18" x 2-1/2".

Frequently asked questions

Does this holder effectively maintain instrument opening?

Yes. The Posi-Lock mechanism is specifically engineered to keep instruments like hemostatic forceps, scissors, and needle holders in an open position. This is crucial for:

Ensuring all surfaces are adequately exposed to cleaning agents.
Achieving proper sterilization cycles.
Preventing instruments from overlapping or closing during processing.

Is the stainless steel construction medical grade?

Absolutely. It is manufactured from high-quality, professional-grade stainless steel. This material is selected for its durability and reliability, allowing it to withstand the rigors of frequent use in demanding medical environments.

Can this be safely used in latex-sensitive environments?

Yes, the product is 100% latex-free. It is constructed without the use of natural rubber latex, prioritizing safety for both healthcare staff and patients.

Is this durable enough for long-term clinical use?

Yes, this holder is a reusable instrument built to last. Its robust construction is supported by a lifetime warranty, reflecting the manufacturer’s confidence in its long-term durability and quality.

How secure is the locking mechanism during transit?

The Posi-Lock design is superior to standard stringers. Once your instruments are aligned, the mechanism secures them firmly to prevent displacement during handling, transport, or cleaning. It requires a deliberate action to release the instruments, ensuring they stay put until you are ready to remove them.

Is this model suitable for government medical facilities?

Yes, this product is TAA compliant, meaning it meets the standards required for government and institutional procurement.

Does this simplify instrument sterilization workflows?

It serves as an essential tool for Central Sterile Supply Departments (CSSD). By organizing instruments on the rack and keeping them in an open position, it creates a more efficient and reliable workflow for cleaning and sterilization.

What is the total capacity length of this holder?

This specific model features a length of 18 inches, providing ample space to manage a collection of surgical instruments while maintaining a manageable width of 2.5 inches.

Are there special maintenance requirements for the finish?

The holder features a brushed stainless steel finish that is highly durable. Because it is designed for sterile processing, it is compatible with standard medical cleaning protocols and sterilization cycles used in surgical settings.

Does the design prevent instruments from sliding off?

The primary benefit of the Posi-Lock system is exactly that. Unlike basic wire stringers, the latching gate ensures that once the instruments are loaded, they are locked in place and will not slide off during the movement between the operating room and the sterile processing department.
