Surgical Scissors

Three Differnt Types of Surgical Scissors

Most surgical scissors are manufactured with different blade types this all depends on the particular surgical practice being done by the medical doctor. The three different blade definitions are...

Stainless Blades - Surgical scissors with stainless blades are the most frequent. Not only the blade, but the whole scissors themselves are made out of the same metal (stainless steel) and there are no distinct ring colors.

Tungsten Carbide Blades - On the surface of the blades you can notice the metal tungsten carbide (A.K.A TC). These are here, because many believe they are rougher then tradinotial stainless steel. Once sharpened, this type of surgical scissor blades stay more sharp for a longer period of time and are attached to the stainless scissor by vaccum brazing or welding. These tungsten carbide insert strips cannot be replaced once they become sharpened down. You can tell whenever you see TC by the rings on the design.

Black Handled Surgical scissors - These surgical scissors are known as micro grind or super cut surgical scissors in the industry. The sharpening practice that is used to design these medical instruments is what makes it truly unique. This scissor has a blade that will lance/slice through tissue due to its "knife edge" sharpening technique. Most other types of surgical scissors will crush the tissue as a result cutting it, but the black handled one just simply slices the tissue. Black handled surgical scissors require special sharpening methods using special medical equipment and must be re-sharpened3 to 4 times a year. It is easy to spot these surgical scissors due the fact that they have black colored rings.

Gold Handled surgical scissors have cutting blades made of tungsten carbide. Becuase its rough and more harder, TC stay sharper longer. Inspect tungsten carbide blades for cracks before tray assembly. If you see a crack, then send it back right away so the manufacture can replace it with the warranty.

Doctors: Question about surgical instruments?

My father is a doctor and I bought him a pair of umbilical cord cutting scissors for Christmas and they are made of corrosion resistant surgical stainless steel. I would like to get them engraved to say Merry Christmas 2010. Will that effect the usage of the scissors if they are engraved? Will they still be able to be used for their intended purpose, after sterilization of course, or will the engraving have an effect on that. Also will the engraving cause corrosion or are the scissors typically solid stainless and not corrode? Will any medical sterilization process effect the engraving?

Sure you can get it engraved, but of course, and he knows this, you will need to get this sterilized. That is a cool gift. Oh and no it wont effect the corrosion resistance.
And the words Merry Christmas sould not be a problem. It really depends on the hospital your dad works at. I know all the hospitals I work at even decorate for Christmas.
