Reynolds Operating and Dissecting Scissors S/S Str.
Straight tenotomy-style operating scissors manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel, designed for precise linear tissue dissection with controlled cutting and grip stability.
Key Features:
• Available in 15 cm and 18 cm lengths for varied surgical reach
• Straight blade alignment enables direct linear dissection control
• Sharp/sharp tenotomy-style tips for precise tissue entry
• Micro-serrated lower blade enhances grip during cutting strokes
• Smooth upper blade ensures clean and continuous incision lines
• Slim blade profile improves visibility in shallow operative fields
• Open ring handle design supports stable fingertip control
• Satin-finished stainless steel reduces glare under surgical lighting
The Reynolds Operating and Dissecting Scissors S/S Str. runs a fully straight blade axis from screw-pivot to tip with no curvature along the shank or blade face. Both tips carry a sharp-sharp (S/S) tenotomy-style point, narrow, fine, and symmetrically tapered. The upper blade holds a smooth razor edge for clean tissue entry, while the lower blade carries micro-serrations along its face to grip tissue and prevent slippage during the cutting stroke. Available in 15 cm and 18 cm, the instrument is constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel with a satin finish and an open-ring handle configuration. The screw-pivot joint sustains blade-face contact across repeated sterilization cycles.
The straight configuration suits shallow, accessible tissue planes where the surgeon requires a direct linear cutting path. Short blade length relative to total shank length concentrates control at the fingertips during fine dissection work. These Scissors keep the cutting zone fully visible in the operative field, unlike angled instruments where the blade offset partially obscures depth.
Ophthalmologists use the Reynolds Operating and Dissecting Scissors S/S Str. during conjunctival incision repair and extraocular muscle tenotomy, the straight blade enters the conjunctival plane cleanly without deflecting toward the sclera. Oral and maxillofacial surgeons also apply the 18 cm variant during intraoral soft tissue release to separate mucosal flaps from the periosteum along the alveolar ridge.
Leader Surgical applies verified dimensional tolerances to blade length, tip geometry, and pivot tension across both size variants in this series. The reynolds scissors straight pattern from this brand holds consistent edge integrity and serration depth through high-cycle sterilization, meeting the standard surgical trays in ophthalmic and maxillofacial suites require.
What does “S/S” stand for in the tip configuration?
“S/S” indicates a Sharp/Sharp tip configuration. These narrow, tenotomy-style tips allow for accurate tissue penetration and sharp dissection.
