Additional product details

• Whether cutting through thick fascia or surgical sutures, the BC557R provides a clean, consistent shear from the screw to the tip.
• Manufacturer: Aesculap (B. Braun)
• Pattern: Mayo
• Tip Configuration: Curved, Blunt/Blunt
• Heavy-Tissue Specialist: Unlike delicate Metzenbaum scissors, these Mayo scissors are built with thicker blades to handle dense muscle and connective tissue without "springing" or losing alignment.
• German Engineering: Aesculap instruments are renowned for their hardened steel, which maintains a factory-sharp edge significantly longer than economy-grade alternatives.
• Safe Blunt Dissection: The rounded blunt tips allow for the safe separation of tissue layers, protecting vital structures from accidental nicks or punctures.
• High-Cycle Durability: Designed for thousands of autoclave cycles, the BC557R resists corrosion and maintains a smooth opening/closing action even after years of heavy clinical use.
• Status: Used – Usable Condition (USED-SI).
• Functional Status: The blades are sharp and provide a clean cut along the entire length. The pivot screw is secure, and the tension is correctly calibrated for "no-snag" operation.
• Cosmetic Status: Shows visible signs of wear consistent with prior surgical use, including minor surface scuffs and typical sterilization patina. The unit is clean and mechanically sound.
• Sterilization Note: This instrument is provided non-sterile. It must be professionally cleaned and autoclaved per your facility's validated surgical protocols prior to use.
• If the scissors are "burred," fail to cut cleanly at the tips, or have a loose pivot upon arrival, Primis Medical will provide a full refund or replacement.
• The Aesculap BC557R is essential for:
• General Surgery: Cutting fascia, muscle, and heavy suture material.
• Orthopedics: Dissecting around ligaments and joint capsules.
• OB/GYN: Episiotomy repair and uterine procedures.
