The smallest dissecting scissors with tungsten carbide and ceramic coated blades are here

Roboz is now offering new Bonn dissecting scissors with tungsten carbide and ceramic-coated blades, which, at 15mm, are the smallest on the market. These 3.5-inch long scissors are designed for high performance during precise, delicate procedures when micro scissors don’t offer sufficient strength.

Tungsten carbide is one of the hardest materials known to man – five times harder than stainless steel. This means that scissors with tungsten carbide blade inserts last much longer than stainless steel scissors, and keep their razor-sharp edge to allow for smooth cuts even after repeated use. Almost impervious to corrosion, these tough inserts are micro-bonded to the scissor tips to provide years of increased performance.

Ceramic coated scissors also have tungsten carbide blades, which are made even harder by the ceramic coating. One of the blades is serrated while the other one is very sharp in order to prevent tissue from slipping out from between the blades. The smooth way these scissors work and the effortless, clean cuts make it hard to go back to standard scissors for anyone who has tried them. Luckily, owners of these scissors will face that dilemma much less frequently as they last up to six times longer than stainless steel scissors.

The short (15mm) blades of these Bonn scissors are perfect for exacting procedures that require precise, gentle cuts. Whether it is the extraction of mouse brain or the demanding piercing of the trachea, the small blades made it easier to judge the depth of penetration and avoid damage to surrounding structures. The durability of tungsten carbide scissors makes them perfect for cutting cartilage or for repetitive cuts such as in necropsy studies.
