Cotton Applicator 1.2mm, 18cm

Clinical Application

Provides precise, atraumatic topical application and gentle blotting in procedures that require controlled delivery of solutions or removal of micro-amounts of fluid. Common uses include applying antiseptics, local anesthetics, hemostatic agents, or ophthalmic drops; cleaning wound margins; and fine manipulation in ENT, ophthalmology, plastics, and microsurgery where a small-diameter applicator tip improves access and accuracy.

Design & Configuration

The fine 1.2 mm absorbent tip concentrates small volumes of fluid for targeted application without excess spill or pooling. The 18 cm length offers additional reach into deeper cavities or recessed operative fields while maintaining tactile control. A straight shaft geometry facilitates direct approach and precise orientation, and the soft cotton tip provides atraumatic contact with delicate tissues.
