Sklar Econo Hartmann Alligator Ear Forceps
A disposable alligator-jawed ear forceps with a serrated tip, used to grasp and remove wax or foreign bodies from the ear canal in ENT practice.
The Econo Hartmann alligator ear forceps from Sklar are a disposable instrument built with a distinctive alligator-jaw action, where the jaws open and close in line with the shaft rather than side to side, allowing the tip to be introduced along the narrow ear canal and then opened to grasp material without needing extra clearance around the instrument.
The one and a half millimetre tip carries a serrated pattern for a secure hold on wax, small foreign bodies, or debris being removed during an ear examination or procedure. This listing covers three lengths, three and a half, five and a half, and six and a half inches, giving the clinician a choice depending on how deep into the canal the working tip needs to reach.
Supplied disposable, the forceps are used for a single patient and discarded, an appropriate infection control step for an instrument working directly within the ear canal across many patients each day. ENT clinics, general practice, and audiology services commonly keep this range of lengths stocked for routine ear examination and wax removal work.
