Haight Rib Spreader

The Haight Rib Spreader is an essential cardiothoracic surgical retractor engineered specifically to provide safe, gradual intercostal rib separation and chest wall exposure during adult thoracotomy and pulmonary resection procedures. Designed with a robust horizontal expansion track beam, this instrument allows thoracic surgeons to apply steady mechanical spreading forces across adjacent ribs, preventing costal fractures while maintaining an unobstructed operative corridor into the pleural cavity.

Built to clinical framework specifications, this Haight Rib Spreader complete set ($329) features a heavy-duty horizontal track expansion beam supporting manual structural widening up to a 120 mm maximum horizontal expansion range. Handcrafted from premium operating room-grade German stainless steel, the fixed angled lateral blades measure 30 mm × 30 mm, engineered with strategically placed circular tissue fenestrations that anchor firmly onto adult bone cortices without slipping. The turning thread screw lock mechanical retention clamp ensures a stable hold at the chosen retraction level, while ergonomic retracting forceps beams crafted with smooth outer edges prevent soft-tissue damage.

Forged with an anti-glare satin matte finish, Retractor Maker manufactures the Haight Rib Spreader to withstand repetitive hospital autoclave cycles, providing thoracic operating theaters, cardiac suites, and trauma surgical centers worldwide with exceptional structural rigidity, corrosion resistance, and complete autoclave durability.
