In compliance with EU Sharps Directive 2010/32/EU

The Swann-Morton Retractable safety scalpel supports and enhances safe passing procedures and protocols already practiced within the Operating Room and Theatres.

Colour-coded for ease of blade shape recognition the scalpels feature a strong temporary forward lock position to prevent uncontrolled retraction when contacting with bone during use, an additional notch to hold the blade more securely in the passing position and a rear permanent lock to be engaged prior to final disposal in a sharps container.

The Retractable Scalpels are available in a range of sizes and blade designs to suit most purposes. They are supplied sterile and individually wrapped in packs of 25.
