19 ¾″ Brand Tendon Stripper, 6 mm

The 19 ¾″ Brand Tendon Stripper, 6 mm is a specialized orthopedic surgical instrument designed for controlled tendon harvesting and preparation during procedures involving tendon grafts. Its extended 19¾-inch length provides useful reach along the tendon while the 6mm working size offers a defined configuration for surgical techniques requiring this diameter. Tendon strippers are used to assist surgeons in separating and harvesting tendon tissue according to the planned graft technique. The instrument is advanced along the selected tendon under controlled conditions, helping prepare the required tendon segment for subsequent surgical use. A purpose-designed tendon stripper can provide consistent handling and improved control during this important stage of graft preparation. The 6mm working size makes this model suitable for procedures where a 6mm tendon stripper is appropriate. Different tendon stripper sizes are available because graft dimensions, anatomical requirements, and surgical techniques can vary. The correct size should be selected by the surgical team based on the tendon being harvested and the requirements of the procedure. At 19¾ inches in length, this Brand Tendon Stripper provides extended working reach compared with shorter tendon harvesting instruments. The longer profile can be useful when access along the tendon requires additional length while still allowing the surgeon to maintain manual control. This makes it suitable for selected orthopedic, sports medicine, reconstructive, and tendon grafting procedures. The instrument can be incorporated into orthopedic tendon harvesting sets and surgical trays. Potential applications include tendon graft preparation, ligament reconstruction procedures, reconstructive surgery, and other orthopedic techniques involving harvested tendon tissue. Its exact clinical application should always be determined by the qualified surgical professional according to the patient’s anatomy and established surgical technique. The working profile is designed to support controlled movement along the tendon. Smooth instrument surfaces and a properly finished working end can help minimize unnecessary resistance during appropriate use while supporting routine cleaning and inspection. The instrument should always be used according to its intended design and applicable surgical protocols. When supplied as a reusable surgical instrument, the Brand Tendon Stripper is commonly manufactured from durable surgical-instrument material intended for professional clinical environments. Proper construction supports repeated handling, cleaning, inspection, and reprocessing. Exact material composition and design specifications may vary according to the manufacturer and supplied configuration. Following use, the instrument should be cleaned promptly according to the healthcare facility’s validated instrument-reprocessing procedure. Particular attention should be given to the working portion to ensure removal of tissue and biological residue. The instrument should then be carefully inspected for corrosion, surface damage, deformation, or other abnormalities before reuse. If the supplied configuration is validated for steam sterilization, it should be processed according to the manufacturer’s validated instructions and the healthcare facility’s approved sterilization protocol. Proper cleaning, sterilization, handling, and storage help preserve the instrument’s condition and support reliable performance.
