Clinical Application
Used for controlled soft-tissue retraction and exposure of wound edges and subcutaneous planes during superficial to moderately deep procedures. The straight, flat blade provides broad contact with tissue, making it suitable for general, plastic, hand and ENT cases where atraumatic, consistent retraction and improved visualization are required. It is commonly used to maintain exposure during dissection, hemostasis and wound closure.
Design & Configuration
The straight-tip geometry with a 160 x 30 mm blade offers a balance between surface area and profile: a wide, flat surface distributes retraction forces to minimize focal pressure while a 30 mm blade width reduces obstruction in the operative field. The 25 cm overall length provides reach into deeper wounds without requiring excessive blade bulk, allowing the assistant or surgeon to maintain exposure with precise control. The straight blade orientation facilitates direct, even retraction along linear incisions and narrow operative corridors.
