The Crile Retractor Double-Ended is a compact 4 ¼″ (10.8 cm) surgical instrument designed for superficial and intermediate wound margin exposure. Featuring two oppositely oriented, differing blade lengths in selectable Style #1 ($29) or Style #2 ($35), it ensures maximum intraoperative versatility across minor surgical procedures.
The Crile Retractor Double-Ended is an essential handheld surgical instrument engineered specifically to provide reliable, multi-depth soft-tissue and wound margin exposure during minor general, plastic, and reconstructive procedures. Designed with two distinct, oppositely oriented right-angled blades on a single compact chassis, this retractor allows surgical teams to transition instantly between shallow subcutaneous tissue retraction and deeper fascial elevation.
Built for exceptional agility in restricted surgical spaces, this Crile Retractor Double-Ended model features an overall length of 4 ¼ inches (10.8 cm). The instrument is offered in two standardized style configurations: Style #1 ($29), featuring 11 mm × 3 mm (1/8″ × 7/16″) and 20 mm × 6 mm (1/4″ × 13/16″) blades, and Style #2 ($35), featuring 1/4″ × 1/2″ and 3/8″ × 7/8″ blades. The smooth, rounded blade margins prevent tissue trauma, while the central handle provides a fatigue-free grip for operating assistants.
Forged from premium medical-grade surgical stainless steel with a reflection-free satin matte finish, Retractor Maker manufactures the Crile Retractor Double-Ended to withstand repetitive hospital autoclave cycles, delivering high corrosion resistance, excellent manual balance, and complete clinical durability for outpatient clinics and operating rooms worldwide.

The Crile Retractor Double-Ended is a solid one-piece instrument, so its performance comes from blade geometry and handle ergonomics. The working blade is specified as Oppositely oriented right-angled blades with smooth atraumatic lips, which spreads retraction force over a wider contact area and reduces point pressure on tissue. An overall length of 4 ¼″ (10.8 cm) 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 Crile Retractor Double-Ended is used in surgical procedures to hold open skin edges, subcutaneous tissue, and small muscle groups, providing clear visualization of underlying anatomy across varying incision depths.
It is indicated for minor excisions, lipoma and cyst removals, carpal tunnel surgery, facial plastic surgery, thyroidectomy, hernia repair, and superficial wound closure.
The instrument is forged from high-tensile surgical stainless steel with an anti-glare satin matte finish that eliminates optical reflections under operating room lighting.
Yes. The entire Crile Retractor Double-Ended is 100% reusable and fully validated for pre-vacuum steam autoclave cycles (134°C / 273°F).
Because this is a solid, one-piece double-ended handheld instrument, each style is sold as a standalone unit. Hospitals can order both styles to equip minor surgical trays.
Yes. Retractor Maker provides custom blade depths, modified shank lengths, and laser marking for hospital asset tracking upon request.
