Universal Wire Cutting Scissors (TC)

The Universal Wire Cutting Scissors (TC) have a 12 cm frame and angled jaws, making them ideal for cutting surgical wire with control and strength. The addition of tungsten carbide inserts to the blades is critical, as it considerably improves edge retention and sharpness. Furthermore, one blade is serrated to give a tight grip, limiting the possibility of slippage during cutting. These scissors can cut hard wires up to 0.8 mm and soft wires up to 1.2 mm in diameter.

Furthermore, the scissors are made of high-quality stainless steel, which resists corrosion and can be sterilized in an autoclave. The tungsten carbide blades, along with an ergonomic grip design, provide comfort for lengthy surgical use. Furthermore, the angled jaw structure increases access to confined surgical locations, resulting in more precise cuts. This combination of materials and design guarantees consistent, trustworthy performance throughout procedures.

The Universal Wire Cutting Scissors (TC) are most commonly used in orthopedic, maxillofacial, and dental procedures that use surgical wire. Common uses include cutting cerclage wires, clipping stainless steel sutures, and handling orthodontic wire systems. Their tiny and angled form makes them extremely handy when operating in confined or difficult-to-reach areas of the body.

Do the tungsten carbide tips need special care during cleaning?
Yes, although durable, tungsten carbide inserts should be cleaned gently with non-abrasive tools. Avoid ultrasonic cleaning if the inserts are loose or damaged, and always inspect the blades before sterilization
