Lukens Trachea Retractors 17cm – Prime-Point Tissue Anchor & Clear-Path Airway Shield

Solid-Phase Lukens Trachea Retractor (17cm) for Enhanced Airway Exposure

The Lukens Trachea Retractors 17cm is a cornerstone of the professional otolaryngology toolkit, specifically engineered for the stable displacement of the tracheal rings during incision and tube placement. Functioning as a high-performance tissue anchor, this 17cm model features a sharp, curved prong that provides a secure purchase on the tough fibrous tissue of the neck. Adas Instruments ensures that each airway shield is balanced for center-point force transmission, providing the surgeon with the tactical sensitivity needed to retract the isthmus or trachea safely. By utilizing the Lukens Trachea Retractors 17cm, practitioners benefit from an elongated handle design that keeps the clinician’s hand away from the surgical site, maximizing the visual field under operative lighting. We ship USA, Europe & worldwide via DHL, FedEx, and UPS to deliver German steel instruments that professionals trust for their sharp-point retention and structural resilience.
