Shea Multi-Purpose Retractor 18cm – Aero-Vantage Tissue Anchor & Prime-View Deep-Field Shield

Solid-Phase Shea Multi-Purpose Retractor (18cm) for High-Visibility Reconstructive Surgery

The Shea Multi-Purpose Retractor 18cm is a premier instrument in the maxillofacial and ENT toolkit, specifically engineered for the precise displacement of soft tissue flaps. Functioning as a high-performance tissue anchor, this 18cm model features a broad, gently curved blade that distributes retraction pressure evenly to prevent tissue trauma. Adas Instruments ensures that each unit is balanced for center-point ergonomics, allowing the surgical assistant to maintain a steady field of view with minimal hand fatigue during prolonged procedures. By utilizing the Shea Multi-Purpose Retractor 18cm, surgeons benefit from a deep-field shield that protects neurovascular structures during bone manipulation or tumor resection. We ship USA, Europe & worldwide via DHL, FedEx, and UPS to deliver German steel instruments that surgeons trust for their anatomical efficiency and structural resilience.
