Clinical Application
This compact butterfly key is a hand tool intended to engage the wing-style locking nut or valve on instrument model 28.1470.00. It is used by surgical technicians and surgeons to assemble, disassemble, tighten or loosen the instrument connection points and to set/adjust component tension during setup, intraoperative adjustments, or maintenance.
Design & Configuration
The winged (butterfly) profile provides broad finger surfaces for improved grip and tactile control in confined OR or procedure-room spaces. The keyed interface aligns with the corresponding mating profile on the instrument to permit secure turning without slipping; the compact form factor helps reach recessed fasteners while minimizing disruption to adjacent sterile drapes and instrument trays.
