Sklarlite™ Spencer Stitch Scissors are used for suture removal.
These finger ring scissors have a small hook shaped tip on one blade that slides under sutures to slightly lift them before cutting for removal. This hook also holds the suture, so it does not slip off the blade of the scissors prior to cutting. They are commonly available in lengths of 3 1/2" and 4 1/2", and have smaller, more delicate tips used for removing smaller sutures. They should not be used for cutting tissue.
Sklarlite™ instruments are a lighter version of standard Sklar instruments. A manufacturing process developed by Sklar shaves microns off standard and delicate pattern instruments, while maintaining structural integrity and durability. This lightweight modification provides the surgeon with greater control and less fatigue.
