Frequently asked questions
Is this surgical instrument built for repeated use?
Yes, this is a reusable surgical instrument. It is constructed from high-quality stainless steel at the working end to ensure long-term durability for repeated surgical applications.
What is the primary material used for the handle?
The handle is crafted from phenolic plastic. This material is chosen for its durability and its ability to provide an ergonomic, firm grip, which is essential for maneuverability during precise bone-cutting procedures.
How does the size compare to standard Lexer models?
This is the mini version of the Lexer chisel. It has a total length of 7 inches, making it more compact and potentially easier to maneuver than the full-size Lexer model, which measures 8-1/2 inches.
Is the material safe for patients with latex allergies?
Absolutely. The Sklar Lexer-Mini Chisel is not made with natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for surgical environments where latex-free instruments are required.
Does this tool meet TAA compliance standards?
Yes, this product is TAA compliant, meeting the requirements necessary for use in government and federally regulated medical facilities.
How should this instrument be prepared for surgery?
The instrument is supplied non-sterile. Prior to any surgical procedure, it must undergo proper cleaning and sterilization protocols according to your facility’s standard operating procedures for reusable surgical tools.
What makes this chisel ideal for precise bone work?
The instrument features a slim neck design that transitions into a flat blade. This geometry, combined with the ergonomic phenolic handle, allows for excellent tactile control and precision when chipping or cutting bone tissue.
Is there a warranty provided for this instrument?
Yes, Sklar stands behind the craftsmanship of this instrument with a lifetime warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
What type of surgical procedures is this best suited for?
It is specifically designed for orthopedic procedures where precise bone removal, shaping, or cutting is required. Its compact design is particularly useful in tight operative areas.
Is the blade width suitable for fine surgical tasks?
Yes, the blade features an 8mm width, providing a balanced surface area that is ideal for controlled bone manipulation while maintaining the necessary strength for effective cutting.
