Lobster Surgical Retractor, 16.5 cm (6.5 in)

The Lobster Surgical Retractor is a handheld, self-retaining instrument designed to hold back tissue and maintain a clear operative field during general, orthopedic, and soft-tissue procedures. Its 16.5 cm (6.5 in) length gives surgeons a balanced reach for superficial to moderately deep exposure while keeping the working end visible. The lobster-claw tips grip tissue securely with minimal trauma, and the ratcheted handle lets the surgeon set and hold retraction tension without an assistant. Built from surgical-grade stainless steel, it withstands repeated sterilization cycles and delivers the dependable performance surgical teams expect in the operating room, ASC, or clinic.

General surgery: holding back skin, fat, and muscle layers to expose the operative site
Orthopedic procedures: maintaining soft-tissue retraction around joints and bone
Wound and incision management: keeping wound edges open for inspection, irrigation, and closure
Minor procedures in ASCs and clinics: short-duration retraction where a self-retaining instrument improves workflow
Soft-tissue dissection: controlled, hands-free retraction that frees the surgeon's hands

Instrument type	Self-retaining surgical retractor
Overall length	16.5 cm (6.5 in)
Working end	Lobster-claw tips
Handle	Ratcheted, self-locking
Material	Surgical-grade stainless steel

Clean and sterilize before first use and after every procedure following your facility's validated protocol.
