The Econo Billeau Flexible Ear Loop is used for removing cerumen, also known as ear wax, or foreign objects from the external ear canal. The flexible wire loop on the Billeau instrument adapts to the curvature of the ear versus other more rigid ear curettes. Econo instruments are Sklar's floor-grade, disposable instruments and are sold in bulk quantities. This product is the small loop. They are sold in boxes of 12.
