Clinical Application
Provides a robust, controllable scraping and debridement tool for removal of soft tissue, granulation tissue, necrotic material and for precise curettage of cavity walls. The long reach and sizable tip are useful when accessing deeper or confined anatomical spaces during ENT, general, or specialty procedures that require tactile feedback and controlled tissue removal.
Design & Configuration
The malleable shaft permits intraoperative contouring to match patient anatomy or approach angles, improving access to curved or narrow corridors while maintaining tip orientation. The 40 mm curette tip provides a larger scoop profile for efficient core removal or debridement, and the 34 cm overall length gives extended reach when working in deeper operative fields. The Fig.16 pattern denotes a specific tip-to-shaft geometry used to balance reach, visibility and mechanical control.

Material & Construction
Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel to provide the strength and corrosion resistance required for repeated clinical use and routine reprocessing. The malleable shaft is engineered to hold bends made during setup while preserving tip stability for controlled tissue manipulation. Reusable construction supports long-term inventory use in procedural settings.
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
Brand Comparison
Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
