The Mayo brothers — William James and Charles Horace — founded what became the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, and lent their family name to a remarkable number of surgical instruments. Mayo scissors, the most common of the family, are heavy curved or straight dissecting scissors with thick blades for cutting fascia, suture, and tough tissue. The 14 cm and 17 cm lengths are most used. Mayo’s design philosophy emphasized robustness over delicacy: these are workhorses meant to outlast decades of autoclave cycles in a busy operating theatre. Curved Mayo scissors handle blunt and sharp dissection through fascial planes; straight Mayos are preferred for cutting suture and prepared tissue.
Mayo-Harrington Scissors 225mm (22.5cm) Straight — manufactured under reference SC 02-75-00. A straight shaft simplifies handling in open-cavity work where the surgeon approaches the target along a clear line.

Every instrument is forged, machined, and finished at the Sialkot facility from German-origin stainless billet — austenitic 304 / 316 grades for non-cutting, mucosal-contact, and hollow-ware lines where corrosion resistance is the priority, martensitic 420 / 440 grades for cutting and edge-retention patterns where heat-treatable hardness matters, and 17-4 PH precipitation-hardened stainless for high-load orthopedic and implant-handling applications. Polishing, passivation, and final inspection are performed in-house under documented quality procedures aligned with ISO 13485:2016.
