Wire Cutting Plier 24cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled transection and trimming of surgical wire during fixation and closure procedures. Commonly used in orthopedics and trauma for cerclage and wire fixation, in cardiothoracic cases for sternal wire cutting at closure, and in other operative settings where precise snipping of stainless steel wire or similar implants is required. The instrument helps produce a clean cut to minimize sharp tails and facilitate safe handling of wire ends intraoperatively.

Design & Configuration

The scissor-style handles provide familiar ergonomics and mechanical advantage for delivering concentrated cutting force at the jaws. At 24 cm overall length, the instrument offers a balance of reach and leverage that aids in cutting thicker wires while maintaining control close to the operative field. The opposed cutting faces focus force to shear the wire cleanly, supporting predictable, controlled cuts that reduce burr formation and the need for rework.
