Frequently asked questions
Is this blade suitable for clinical precision tasks?
Yes, the McKesson No. 11 blade is designed specifically for clinical precision. It features a straight, sharp, pointed cutting edge engineered to provide the accuracy required for professional surgical and nursing procedures.
Are these blades safe for patients with latex allergies?
Absolutely. These blades are crafted from 100% stainless steel and are completely latex-free, making them a safe choice for both patients and healthcare providers who may have sensitivities to natural rubber latex.
How is sterility maintained for each blade?
Each individual blade is sealed in its own peel-open foil package. This ensures that the blade remains sterile and protected from environmental contaminants until the exact moment you are ready to use it.
What scalpel handles are compatible with these blades?
These blades are designed for a secure fit with standard #3 or #4 autoclavable scalpel handles. Please ensure you are using one of these compatible handle types to ensure proper function.
How do I easily identify the blade size?
To assist clinicians during time-sensitive procedures, the size number ‘11’ is clearly engraved directly onto the metal of each blade, allowing for quick and accurate identification.
Can these blades be cleaned and reused?
No, these are single-use disposable instruments. Reusing the blades is not recommended as it compromises sterility and increases the risk of cross-contamination in medical settings.

How many blades are included in a standard box?

Are these blades appropriate for minor procedure kits?
Yes, their professional-grade construction makes them an ideal component for surgical, diagnostic, and minor procedure kits where a consistent, sharp edge is essential.
Is there a specific way to store these blades?
The blades should be kept in their original foil packaging until use to maintain their sterile status. They should be stored in a clean, dry environment to ensure the integrity of the packaging remains intact.
