Lange Operating Scissors — Curved Serrated, 15.5 cm

Lange Operating Scissors — Curved Serrated, 15.5 cm (Ref SC 02-38-00), supplied as a standard catalogue line. A curved working tip lets the surgeon work behind tissue planes and around vascular structures without obstructing the view. Cross-serrated jaws hold tissue securely under tension without sliding, the standard grip surface for general-purpose work.

The cutting edge on a surgical scissors is engineered geometry: a primary bevel ground to a shallow angle for tissue penetration, a secondary edge polished to near-mirror finish for low-friction transit, and a hardness profile that keeps the edge sharp through hundreds of autoclave cycles. AISI 420 stainless tempered to 52-55 HRC covers the general-surgery range; tungsten-carbide tip inserts extend service life roughly ten-fold on high-volume patterns and resist the edge-rolling that ends standard stainless scissors after a few hundred uses. Pattern selection — Mayo for heavy fascia, Metzenbaum for delicate dissection, Iris for micro-work — turns on the tissue type the surgeon encounters. Fizza manufactures the complete scissors catalogue under ISO 13485:2016 with TC and plain-stainless variants on every premium pattern.

Manufacturing compliance is verified through ISO 13485:2016 certification (the international medical-device quality standard), CE marking under EU MDR 2017/745, and FDA establishment registration. Certificate copies and regulatory documentation are available on request for inclusion in hospital procurement files and EU technical documentation packages. Sterilization validation follows ISO 17665 for steam autoclave at 134 °C.
