Care tips for surgical instruments made of 1A or 1B grade stainless steel
(suitable for sterilization with hot air, steam, or gas)
Stainless steel only remains rust-free if it is treated correctly:
Before initial use, the instrument should be thoroughly cleaned with a soft brush and then rinsed with distilled water to remove all detergent residues, ensuring that all manufacturing residues are washed off.
After using the instruments, they must be immediately soaked so that tissue particles, blood, protein, and corrosive medicines do not dry on the instrument. Instrument joints must be wide open, and detachable parts must be disassembled.
During cleaning, all joints, teeth, grooves, cutting edges, pass-through locks, latches, jaws, and all other concave depressions should be checked for any residues and cleaned, as these could stick so firmly during sterilization that the instrument's mobility and overall function would be impaired.
Afterwards, it is important to rinse the instruments thoroughly with distilled or demineralized water, as tap water contains corrosive substances (e.g., chlorides, nitrides, nitrates, sulfides, sulfates, and rust particles) that would attack the stainless steel during the sterilization process. The possible consequences of incorrect treatment could be:
• tarnished, discolored, stained, or rusted instruments
• chloride pitting corrosion or stress corrosion cracking
The cleaned instruments must be dried by hand and then oiled with pure paraffin oil (DAB8). After that, the instruments must be stored on a soft surface in non-overfilled sterilization baskets (place heavy parts at the bottom, light parts at the top).
The sterilization process can now be initiated.
The instruments may only be stored completely clean and dry, with open latches, in suitable containers, instrument cabinets, or cases.
The instruments must not be used for purposes other than their intended use, as they are designed and load-bearing only for their specific function. For mechanical work, appropriate tools should be available. The warranty expires if the instruments are misused or improperly handled.
