Plaster Spreader with spring 23cm

Clinical Application

Used in orthopedic and casting procedures to separate, spread and manipulate layers of plaster or fiberglass cast material and padding. The instrument enables controlled opening of casts for inspection, adjustment of padding, or to create working space for cast trimming and removal in clinics, operating rooms and ambulatory care settings.

Design & Configuration

The spring-action design provides automatic opening after each closure, allowing one-handed operation and precise control while the other hand stabilizes the limb or cast. At 23 cm overall length the instrument offers a balance of reach and leverage for both adult and pediatric applications. The flat, spatulate blade geometry is intended to slide between cast layers without sharp edges, facilitating gentle separation of materials and reducing the risk of inadvertent soft-tissue trauma during manipulation.
