Wigmore Plaster Saw 19cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled removal of plaster and synthetic casts, this instrument is used by orthopedic surgeons, cast technicians, podiatrists and emergency clinicians to open and section immobilization devices. The saw allows precise hand-guided cuts to free extremities while minimizing vibration and reducing the risk of damage to underlying padding and skin when used with standard cast-removal technique.

Design & Configuration

The straight, 19 cm form factor provides tactile control and close working clearance around joints and small-diameter casts. A narrow, serrated cutting blade abrades and sections rigid cast material efficiently without requiring powered equipment. The rigid handle and blade geometry improve hand stability for accurate scoring and progressive cutting, which is useful when making longitudinal casts cuts or removing localized sections.
