Plaster Spatula 17.5cm

Clinical Application

Designed for clinical and procedural settings where controlled mixing, transfer and application of plaster, casting compounds, bone cement or other viscous materials is required. Commonly used in orthopedics, casting rooms, podiatry and dental laboratories to portion, spread and smooth materials onto molds, bandages or anatomical regions prior to setting. When reprocessed according to facility protocols, the instrument can be used within the sterile field.

Design & Configuration

The spatula-style flat blade provides a broad, even surface to pick up, transfer and lay down mixed material with controlled thickness. The elongated 17.5 cm overall length offers appropriate reach for working across molds and cast layers while maintaining tactile feedback for precise smoothing and contouring. A blunt, flat edge minimizes risk of inadvertent tissue trauma and facilitates uniform spreading and trimming of excess material.
