Frequently asked questions
Does this wire provide consistent cutting performance?
Yes. The wire is engineered with multiple twisted strands, creating a complex, serrated surface specifically designed for effective and efficient bone division during orthopedic procedures.
Is this instrument built for long-term clinical use?
Absolutely. It is manufactured from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring the durability and reliability required in demanding surgical environments. Furthermore, it is backed by a lifetime warranty.
Can this wire be sterilized for repeated use?
Yes, this is a reusable instrument. To maintain its integrity, it must undergo rigorous cleaning and sterilization protocols between surgical procedures.
Is this compatible with standard surgical handles?
The wire is versatile and designed for secure attachment to both T-shape and Loop-shape Gigli Saw handles.
Is the material safe for patients with latex allergies?
Yes. This product is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for surgical environments where latex sensitivity is a concern.
Does this meet specific government procurement standards?
Yes, this wire is TAA Compliant, meaning it meets the standards of the Trade Agreements Act, making it suitable for procurement in facilities that require TAA-compliant medical equipment.
How long is the cutting wire?
The wire measures 12 inches in length, providing the appropriate reach and flexibility needed for standard orthopedic bone-cutting applications.
Does the wire arrive ready for immediate use?
The wire is shipped non-sterile. It must be properly cleaned and sterilized according to your facility’s protocols before it is introduced into a sterile surgical field.
How does the construction facilitate bone cutting?
The twisted construction of the wire creates the necessary friction required to saw through bone. Its flexible nature allows the surgeon to wrap it securely around bone structures to perform a precise 180-degree cutting arc.

Yes, Sklar is a trusted brand for surgical instrumentation. This wire is a factory-new, professional-grade tool designed specifically for high-precision orthopedic surgical suites and hospital operating rooms.
