Freer skin hook 6 2 blunt prongs 2.5mm spread flat handle

Controlled Skin Retraction for General Surgical Handling

The Freer skin hook is a hand-held surgical hook designed to engage and gently retract skin during general surgery. Its 6-inch length provides working reach, while the two blunt prongs with a 2.5 mm spread support localized tissue engagement. A flat handle offers a straightforward gripping surface for controlled positioning and adjustment during exposure. This configuration is suited to tasks that require focused retraction without relying on a broad instrument profile. The blunt tip design and compact spread make it a practical option for routine skin handling where access, visibility, and deliberate instrument placement are important.

Use Cases

• Engage and retract skin during general surgical procedures.
• Support localized tissue handling with two blunt prongs.
• Use the 6-inch length when additional working reach is helpful.
• Position the flat handle for controlled adjustment during exposure.
• Assist with focused retraction where a 2.5 mm prong spread is appropriate.
