FAQs
Can these scissors cut through clothing?
Yes, they are robust enough to cut through most standard fabric used in emergency situations, such as cotton or synthetic athletic wear.
Are these scissors dishwasher safe?
It is not recommended. Hand washing with a disinfectant wipe is the best way to maintain the structural integrity of the joint and handle.
Are these scissors left-handed friendly?
The ergonomic handle is designed for standard use, but the blades will function for both left and right-handed users, though comfort may vary.
What material are the blades made of?
They are manufactured from high-quality stainless steel suitable for medical environments.
Do these scissors rust?
While they are corrosion-resistant, they should be kept dry and cleaned after exposure to moisture or bodily fluids to prevent rust.
Troubleshooting
Scissors feel stiff during use
Apply a tiny drop of mineral oil to the pivot screw to lubricate the joint.
Blades are getting stuck on sticky dressings
Wipe the blades down with an adhesive remover or isopropyl alcohol to remove accumulated residue.
The cutting action feels dull
Ensure the blades are clean; if they continue to fail to cut, they may have reached the end of their service life and should be replaced for safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These scissors require no assembly; they are ready for use immediately upon removing them from their packaging. To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of the blades, keep them free of adhesive residue, which can build up after cutting sticky medical tapes. Clean the blades regularly with an alcohol-based wipe or medical-grade disinfectant after each use. Store in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. While the scissors are rugged, they should be inspected periodically for blade tension to ensure they continue to cut cleanly rather than bending materials.
