Frequently asked questions
Does this retractor support hands-free operation?
Yes, this instrument features a ratcheted, self-retaining mechanism. This allows the user to lock the retractor in place once it is set, providing consistent, hands-free tissue exposure throughout the surgical procedure.
Is this retractor suitable for deep tissue procedures?
Absolutely. It is specifically designed with long, outward-curving prongs that are ideal for accessing small, deep wounds and anatomically restricted surgical spaces.
What type of material is used in its construction?
The retractor is manufactured from high-quality stainless steel. This material choice ensures the instrument is highly durable and capable of withstanding the rigors of repeated medical-grade sterilization and reuse.
Is this tool safe for patients with latex allergies?
Yes, the Sklar Chung Weitlaner Retractor is 100% free of natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for use in surgical environments where latex sensitivity is a concern.
What specific types of surgeries is this tool designed for?
While versatile, this retractor is particularly effective for procedures requiring sustained tissue exposure in confined areas, such as:
- Open rotator cuff repairs

Does this instrument arrive ready for immediate surgical use?
No, this product is supplied non-sterile. As a reusable surgical instrument, it must undergo proper cleaning and sterilization protocols according to your facility’s guidelines before its first use.
How many prongs does the tip have?
The tip configuration features between four and six sharp, outward-curving prongs. These are precision-engineered to anchor securely into tissue for effective and stable retraction.
Is this product TAA compliant?
Yes, this specific instrument is TAA compliant, meeting the necessary requirements for federal procurement and government-contracted surgical settings.
What is the handle style of this retractor?
The retractor features a traditional finger-ring handle style. This design provides the operator with excellent manual control and tactile feedback when positioning and locking the device.
Is this tool a durable investment for a surgical practice?
It is built for professional longevity. The combination of high-grade stainless steel construction and a lifetime manufacturer warranty ensures that this retractor is a reliable, long-term investment for your surgical instrumentation kit.
