Sklar Archer Splinter Forceps, Straight
A straight 5-1/2 inch forceps used to grasp and remove splinters and small foreign bodies embedded in the skin. It is a standard item in professional surgical instrument trays.
The Sklar Archer Splinter Forceps is a straight instrument measuring 5-1/2 inches, used to grasp and withdraw splinters and other small foreign bodies embedded in the skin during minor procedures. Its fine tips are shaped to close precisely on a small object such as a wood splinter, glass fragment or thorn, giving the practitioner enough control to remove the foreign material cleanly without pushing it further into the tissue.
Splinter forceps of this design are a routine item in emergency departments, general practice and minor procedure clinics, where foreign body removal from skin is a common, low complexity presentation. The straight profile suits direct-line approach to the entry point of the splinter, which covers the majority of typical presentations.
This is a single fixed configuration listing without additional variants stated. Clinics and minor procedure units that regularly manage foreign body removal typically keep several of these forceps on hand as a standard minor procedure tray item.
