Sklar Wolff Plaster Cast Breaker, Curved Serrated
A 7 inch curved, serrated cast breaker from Sklar, used by clinicians to grip and break away sections of plaster cast during cast removal in hospitals.
The Sklar Wolff Plaster Cast Breaker is a 7 inch curved instrument with a serrated jaw, used by orthopedic staff and plaster technicians to grip and snap away sections of a plaster of Paris cast once it has been scored or partly cut. Rather than cutting through the full thickness of the cast the way a saw does, a cast breaker works by gripping an already weakened section and applying leverage to crack it apart, which can speed up removal and reduce the vibration a patient feels compared to prolonged sawing.
The serrated jaw gives the instrument a firm hold on the hard plaster surface so it does not slip during the breaking motion. This listing covers the product across two variants, giving departments a choice within the same pattern. Manufactured by Sklar for repeated clinical use, the instrument should be cleaned and disinfected or sterilised between patients following the facility's reprocessing protocol.
Orthopedic clinics, fracture units and emergency departments across the UAE that manage plaster casts commonly keep a cast breaker alongside their cast saws for routine cast changes.
