Collin V/Specula 100x35mm w/F.O.L.carrier

Clinical Application

This V-geometry speculum provides targeted retraction of soft tissues to open a narrow lumen for direct visualization and instrumentation. The 100x35 mm footprint offers a balance between depth and lateral exposure appropriate for procedures that require a focused field—commonly used in nasal and other small-cavity examinations and minor operative procedures. Integrated illumination capability via the fiber optic light carrier improves visualization of mucosal detail and surgical landmarks without relying on external, handheld lights.

Design & Configuration

The V-shaped blades create a controlled triangular opening that concentrates retraction forces at two focal points, improving access while minimizing unnecessary tissue compression. The 100x35 mm dimension describes the working span and depth, helping clinicians select an instrument that matches patient anatomy and the procedural corridor. The included fiber optic light (F.O.L.) carrier routes illumination along the instrument axis to reduce shadows in the surgical field, facilitating precise dissection and biopsy sampling.

Instrument Specifications

• Model: Collin V speculum
• Working size: 100x35 mm
• Blade geometry: V-shaped blades for focused retraction
• Illumination: Supplied with fiber optic light carrier (F.O.L.)
• Construction: Surgical stainless steel
• Reusable: Designed for repeated decontamination and sterilization

Material & Construction

Constructed from corrosion-resistant surgical stainless steel to withstand repeated sterilization cycles. The instrument incorporates a fiber optic light carrier to deliver shadow-reducing illumination to the working area without a separate handheld light source. The robust hinge and blade geometry are machined for consistent alignment and reliable retraction.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
