Army-Navy Retractor-Set of Two

The Army-Navy Retractor-Set of Two is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as Double-ended: one shallow right-angled blade and one deeper right-angled blade with curved retaining lip, which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. The handle is central fenestrated flat handle for balanced grip and reduced weight, giving a secure, fatigue-resistant grip through long exposures. An overall length of 21 cm (approx. 8.25 inches) keeps the surgeon's hand clear of the operative field. It is made from surgical-grade stainless steel (aisi 304/410) for glare-free, corrosion-resistant service.

The Army-Navy Retractor-Set of Two is used to retract skin, subcutaneous fat, and muscle tissue during superficial and intermediate surgical exposures, giving surgeons clear visualization of underlying anatomy.

It is indicated for appendectomy, hernia repair, thyroidectomy, orthopedic extremity procedures, mastectomy, exploratory laparotomy, and plastic wound closures.

The instruments are forged from premium surgical-grade stainless steel with an anti-glare satin matte finish that prevents light reflection from overhead operating room lights.
