Frequently asked questions
Is high-quality Japanese steel used in these scissors?

Can these scissors be reused after sterilization?
Absolutely. These are reusable stainless steel instruments designed to withstand repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles in professional medical environments.
How does the integrated hook improve suture removal?
The small hook tip on one blade is a specialized feature that allows you to:
- Easily slide beneath the suture.
- Gently elevate the thread away from the skin.
- Secure the suture in place to prevent it from slipping while you make a precise cut.
Are these safe to use with latex-sensitive patients?

Are these scissors suitable for cutting delicate tissue?
No, these scissors are not intended for cutting tissue. They are precision-engineered exclusively for the task of suture removal.
Why is the 4-1/2 inch size preferred for sutures?
The 4-1/2 inch length is specifically chosen for smaller, delicate procedures. Its compact size allows for greater control and precision when managing fine sutures.
Do these arrive ready for immediate surgical use?
These instruments are supplied non-sterile. They require standard cleaning and a proper sterilization process according to your facility’s protocols before being used in a procedure.
Is the construction durable enough for daily hospital use?
Yes, being part of the Surgi-OR mid-grade line, they are constructed to be durable, reliable, and capable of holding up to the demands of daily use in surgical centers and operating rooms.
What is the primary benefit of the blunt/blunt tip configuration?
The blunt/blunt (B/B) tip design is chosen for increased safety. It minimizes the risk of accidental puncture or trauma to the surrounding skin while the hook is being positioned under the suture thread.
Does this product offer long-term reliability?
Yes, these scissors are backed by a lifetime warranty, reflecting the manufacturer’s confidence in the craftsmanship and the high-quality stainless steel construction.
