20 cm, 8″
The Semb Rib Shears 10-684-20 are specialized surgical shears intended for controlled cutting during appropriate thoracic procedures. This model has an overall length of 20 cm (8 inches), providing a practical working size for professional surgical environments where dedicated rib-cutting instrumentation is needed. Next Edge Surgical LLC identifies the instrument as Semb Rib Shears and lists it under both the Rib Shears and Sternum Chisel categories.
A dedicated rib shear can be an important part of a procedure-specific surgical tray, particularly when the surgical team needs an instrument selected specifically for cutting rather than a general-purpose shear. The 20 cm length gives professionals a clearly defined size to consider when evaluating access, handling, and tray requirements. Its classification also makes identification easier during inventory management and preparation for appropriate procedures.
When selecting specialized thoracic equipment, this model can be incorporated with other instruments available through Next Edge Surgical LLC. The 10-684-20 belongs to the company’s specialized CARDIOVASCULAR & THORACIC INSTRUMENTS range, giving professional facilities another focused option for procedure-specific instrumentation.
