Sklarlite Nail Splitting Forceps, English Anvil
A 5 inch nail splitting forceps from Sklarlite with an English anvil pattern jaw, used to split and remove diseased or ingrown nail sections in hospitals.
The Sklarlite Nail Splitting Forceps is a 5 inch instrument fitted with an English anvil pattern jaw, built on Sklar's extra light Sklarlite platform and designed specifically for splitting and removing sections of nail during podiatric and minor surgical procedures such as treatment of ingrown or diseased toenails.
The anvil jaw design provides a flat, firm surface against which the opposing blade cuts through the nail plate cleanly, giving the clinician better control than a general purpose cutting instrument would offer for this specific task. This makes it a purpose built tool rather than a multi use instrument, commonly found in podiatry clinics, minor surgery units and dermatology practices that manage nail conditions.
The extra light Sklarlite build helps reduce hand fatigue for clinicians performing this procedure across multiple patients in a clinic session. Manufactured by Sklar, the forceps is designed for repeated clinical use and must be cleaned, inspected and sterilised between patients following standard infection control protocol, given direct contact with nail and adjacent tissue.
Podiatry and minor surgery clinics across the UAE and GCC commonly stock this nail splitting forceps.
