Sklar Feilchenfeld Splinter Forceps

The Sklar Feilchenfeld Splinter Forceps is a small precision instrument designed to grasp and remove splinters, glass fragments and other tiny foreign bodies embedded in skin. Its fine tips allow the clinician to reach and hold very small objects with accuracy, reducing trauma to the surrounding tissue compared with using a general purpose forceps for the same task.

At 4-1/2 inches, it is sized for close, controlled work rather than reach, which suits its role in minor procedure settings. This instrument is a common fixture in emergency departments, urgent care clinics, general practice rooms and minor surgery units, where clinicians and nurses use it for foreign body removal and minor wound exploration.

As a reusable stainless steel instrument, it is built to be cleaned and sterilised between uses and is typically stocked in minor surgery kits or emergency trays. Clinics and hospitals across the UAE and GCC that handle routine minor injuries keep this forceps as a standard, low cost line item.
