Penfield dissector 7 1/4 double-ended size #2, slightly curved dissector, wax packer flat handle

Controlled Dissection and Wax Packing in a Double-Ended Design

The Penfield dissector 7 1/4" double-ended size #2 is designed for fine tissue dissection and related wax-packing tasks in surgical workflows. Its slightly curved dissector end provides a defined profile for controlled manipulation, while the opposite wax packer end adds practical versatility without requiring a separate instrument for each step. The flat handle supports deliberate handling during focused work, and the 2 mm functional size is suited to tasks requiring a compact working dimension. Appropriate for general surgery and neurosurgery applications, this Penfield dissector combines reach, two-ended functionality, and a size-conscious design for organized instrument use.

Use Cases

• Use the slightly curved dissector end for controlled tissue separation and manipulation in general surgery procedures.
• Apply the compact 2 mm working end where a focused dissector profile is appropriate for delicate surgical tasks.
• Use the instrument in neurosurgery workflows requiring a Penfield-style dissector for careful tissue handling and access.
• Use the opposite wax packer end for wax-packing tasks, reducing the need to exchange instruments between related steps.

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Clean the instrument according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions.
• Inspect both functional ends, the curved dissector profile, and the flat handle for visible soil, damage, or deformation before use.
• Handle the dissector and wax packer ends carefully to help protect their working surfaces during cleaning, transport, and setup.
• Store the double-ended instrument in a manner that prevents contact damage to its functional ends.
