Frequently asked questions
Is this retractor suitable for long-term clinical use?
Yes, the Sklar Tessier Soft Tissue Retractor is designed as a reusable instrument. Built for durability, it is intended for repeated surgical use, providing superior long-term value compared to disposable alternatives.
Does the black finish provide a functional benefit?
The Black Finish is specifically chosen for surgical environments because it creates a non-reflective, matte surface. This helps improve visibility by reducing glare under intense surgical lighting, allowing for better precision during procedures.
Is this instrument safe for patients with latex allergies?
Absolutely. This product is manufactured without natural rubber latex, making it a safe choice for both medical staff and patients who have sensitivities or allergies to latex.

Is the quality guaranteed over time?
Sklar stands behind the craftsmanship of this instrument with a lifetime warranty. This reflects the product’s high-grade construction and our commitment to long-term performance and reliability in the operating room.
How should I handle the device upon arrival?
Please note that this instrument is supplied non-sterile. Because it is a reusable surgical tool, you should follow your facility’s standard protocols for cleaning and sterilization before the first use.
What is the primary surgical use for this design?

Is this a factory-fresh instrument?
Yes, every unit is Factory New. When you order, you receive a brand-new, unused, and high-quality surgical instrument directly from the manufacturer.
Is this tool compatible with existing surgical sets?
The 5-inch Tessier retractor is designed to integrate seamlessly into professional medical kits. It is crafted to perform optimally alongside other Sklar or compatible surgical instrumentation.
