Description

The Sklar® Joseph Skin Hook is a precision surgical instrument constructed from high-quality stainless steel, providing durability, corrosion resistance, and reliable performance in various surgical procedures. Measuring 6.25 inches in length with 5 mm wide sharp double prongs, the instrument is designed for precise retraction and manipulation of skin and superficial tissues. The sharp prongs allow for controlled lifting and exposure of tissue planes, facilitating access and visibility during delicate procedures.

The straight handle provides ergonomic control and stability, enabling accurate positioning and manipulation of skin edges without slipping. The double-prong tip configuration enhances grip on the tissue, allowing for efficient retraction while minimizing trauma to surrounding structures. The instrument’s design supports consistent performance in surgical environments requiring precision and delicate handling.

Non-sterile by default, the Joseph Skin Hook is reusable and can be sterilized according to standard protocols to maintain instrument integrity and ensure safe repeated use. The premium OR-grade construction ensures long-term durability, maintains sharpness of the prongs, and resists deformation under repeated use. The stainless-steel material guarantees corrosion and rust resistance, even in high-moisture operative settings.
