Central Blade only for Vicker Sprader 10x18mm

Clinical Application

This central replacement blade is the primary working blade for the Vicker Sprader 10x18mm retractor system. It is used to provide controlled central retraction and maintain separation of tissue planes in confined or small operative fields, improving visualization and instrument access. Typical uses include procedures that require a narrow, focused point of spread where a Sprader-style retractor is indicated.

Design & Configuration

The blade is supplied as the central element only, designed to mount into the corresponding Sprader retractor frame. The 10x18mm footprint delivers a compact, focused contact area that limits collateral pressure on surrounding tissues while providing stable exposure. As a replacement central blade, its geometry is intended to align precisely with the retractor's mechanism to preserve consistent spread and instrument clearance during the case.
