Coating surgical instruments with a black ceramic adds a thin layer to the metal instrument, making the instrument harder and giving you greater precision. This anti-glare surface minimizes reflections off the surface of your instruments.
Ring Scissors

Our standard scissors all have ring handles. They come in a variety of sizes and shapes for any research application. Tips may be straight, curved, angled or bent.
You can typically recognize the construction style of scissors based on the following color code:
- Black handled rings indicate SuperCut scissors.
- Gold handles indicate that the scissors have Tungsten Carbide inserts.
- One gold handle and one black handle indicates that the scissors are SuperCut and have Tungsten Carbide inserts.
- Blue instruments are typically titanium.
- Our black handled surgical scissors designate our SuperCut scissors. These scissors have one on razor sharp blade and one micro-serrate blade. This construction offers a couple of advantages for surgeons. Sharp edge gives a clean cut with minimal tissue damage Serrated edge actually holds the tissue to prevent it from slipping while you are making an incision
- Our black handled surgical scissors designate our SuperCut scissors. These scissors have one on razor sharp blade and one micro-serrate blade. Surgical scissors with one black handle and one gold handle are SuperCut scissors with tungsten carbide inserts. Tungsten carbide is harder than steel, which means the instruments last longer. The SuperCut edges offer a couple of advantages for surgeons.
