Surgi-OR Tungsten Carbide Metzenbaum Dissecting Scissors are used for dissecting and cutting tissue. These scissors are not recommended for cutting sutures, drains, or heavy tissue. Hand-crafted in Pakistan, Surgi-OR TC mid-grade instruments are forged from the highest quality Japanese steel and provide reliable instrumentation for the operating room and other surgical centers. They are designed to stay sharp for a significantly longer period of time than other standard instruments. Sklar permanently bonds tungsten carbide inserts to the instrument, which maximizes control and precision. Surgi-OR instruments are a cost-effective line of instruments that must meet Sklar's quality standards.
