Jarit Thomas Uterine Curette | Model 500-316 | Malleable Structural Shank | Size 6 Blunt Active Loop Tip | 11.375 Inch Total Nominal Length (28.9 cm) | Premium Reusable OB/GYN Soft-Tissue Scraping Element | Pre-Owned Hospital Surgery Asset (1/EA)

The Jarit 500-316 is a professional-grade, hospital-level obstetrical and gynecological tool expertly engineered to safely scrape, debride, and harvest tissue samples from the internal uterine wall or endometrial lining. Part of the industry-standard Jarit/Integra LifeSciences Surgical Instrument Portfolio, this Thomas style curette features an elongated 11-3/8 inch chassis ($28.9 \text{ cm}$ total working profile) terminating in a specialized Size 6 blunt loop tip. The core design incorporates a fully malleable stainless steel shaft, allowing the surgical team or physician to manually bend and contour the instrument neck to match the patient's unique pelvic curvature or uterine version angles. The blunt oval loop edge is precision-calibrated to peel back superficial endometrial layers or retained placental tissue during diagnostic samplings or postpartum cleanings without causing accidental uterine wall perforation or deep muscle trauma. Forged from high-tensile, implant-grade surgical stainless steel with a non-glare satin finish, this pre-owned instrument represents a highly durable capital asset optimized to withstand automated washer debridement and strict dynamic steam autoclave sterilization cycles inside central sterile supply departments (CSSD).
