Surgical Green Kilner Alar Hook is a reusable 8 cm stainless-steel retractor designed for controlled nostril retraction and visualization of the alar cartilage. Its hook-type working end features a sharp double-prong tip measuring 5 mm x 10 mm.
A central flat handle with coarse horizontal ridges provides a defined, textured gripping surface for controlled professional manipulation during an eversion technique.
The hook-type working end features two sharp prongs designed to support controlled engagement and retraction of the nasal ala.
The defined working-end dimensions support professional instrument selection for the intended nasal retraction requirement.
The hook design supports exposure and visualization of the alar cartilage during a professionally performed eversion technique.
Coarse horizontal ridges create a textured gripping surface that supports controlled handling and helps reduce hand slippage.
The Kilner Alar Hook is manufactured from premium-grade stainless steel and is passivated, ultrasonically cleaned, and dull-polished. It is reusable, latex-free, individually packed, supplied non-sterile, and QC passed. Quality checks include boil, performance, and shape testing.
