The 08-238-20 is a 140 mm Sterberg handheld surgical instrument designed for manual tissue exposure. As the longest of the four Sterberg models in this sequence, it offers additional reach while retaining the compact proportions associated with the pattern. This makes it a practical option for surgical trays that need a little more working length without moving to a substantially larger instrument.
The 08-238-20 is listed as a Sterberg pattern within the retractors category, giving procurement teams a clear reference when building or replenishing general surgical sets. The retractor provides a defined size for facilities that prefer to stock related instruments in graduated lengths.
* 140 mm overall length: Provides the greatest reach in this Sterberg series while remaining suited to relatively close operative work.
* Sterberg configuration: Supports consistent instrument selection when several matching pattern sizes are maintained.
* Manual tissue exposure: The instrument can be positioned to hold appropriate tissue away from the operative area during procedures requiring direct access.
* Set organization: Its specific dimensions make identification and selection easier when surgical trays contain multiple handheld exposure instruments.
This model is a sensible addition for hospitals, clinics, and medical distributors seeking clearly differentiated sizes within a general surgical range. The 140 mm format gives staff another option for cases where the smaller Sterberg versions may not provide the preferred reach. Include the 08-238-20 in your surgical instrument range for practical, size-specific tissue exposure. This graduated approach can simplify selection when the required working distance varies between cases.
