Description

Sklar's double and single action wire and pin pullers are orthopedic tools designed to extract surgical pins - for example in knee arthroplasties - by applying torque pressure. The serrated jaws and tungsten carbide inserts ensure grip. TC instruments are designed to stay sharp for a significantly longer period of time than other standard instruments. Sklar permanently bonds tungsten carbide inserts to the instrument, which maximizes control and precision. TC instruments are identified by gold handles.

Yes. This tool is rated as reusable and is constructed from high-quality stainless steel, making it built to withstand the rigors of frequent use in surgical environments.

How secure is the grip on surgical pins?

The instrument is designed for maximum reliability. It features cross-serrated flat tips, which are specifically engineered to ensure a secure, slip-resistant grip when applying torque pressure to extract pins.

Is this tool safe for latex-sensitive environments?

Absolutely. This product is manufactured without natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for institutional requirements where latex sensitivity is a concern.
