Description
Busse Suture Removal Kits cover suture removal in seven builds, varying the scissors, forceps and prep contents so units can match their standard kit. Every build stages its cutting instrument with forceps and a 3 x 3 in gauze sponge, and the floor grade builds add alcohol and iodophor prep pads.
- Scissors Choice – Littauer hook tipped scissors in economy, floor grade and plastic handle forms, plus Iris scissors and a stitch cutter option.
- Forceps Choice – Posi-Grip plastic forceps, metal forceps or a floor grade Adson serrated forceps by build.
- Prep Pad Builds – Items 723, 724, 726 and 732 add a large alcohol prep pad and an iodophor PVP prep pad.
- Uniform Format – All builds are sterile, with 50 per case except item 737 at 48 per case.
Seven Ways to Build a Suture Removal Kit
Suture removal kits look interchangeable until a unit settles its standard, and then the scissors pattern and forceps material become fixed preferences. The Littauer builds use the hook tipped scissors made for sliding under a suture, in economy metal, floor grade stainless and plastic handle versions. The Iris build, item 723, swaps in floor grade stainless Iris scissors with a matching Adson serrated forceps for services that remove with Iris scissors.
Item 732 takes a third path with a scalpel style stitch cutter and Posi-Grip forceps. Forceps run plastic Posi-Grip in most builds and metal in item 718, and every kit carries a 3 x 3 in gauze sponge, with prep pads added on the four fuller builds.

Why Choose These Suture Removal Kits?
A removal standard only holds if the exact kit stays in stock, and seven builds mean the standard a unit chose is orderable by its own number. The range spans economy to floor grade, so cost and instrument preference are both covered without leaving the maker’s program.
- Standard Stays Standard – The exact scissors and forceps combination a unit chose is a reorder line, not a substitution risk.
- Grade Spread – Economy, floor grade and plastic handle builds cover budget and preference in one range.
- Maker Specification – Kit contents follow the manufacturer’s published component lists per build.
- Prep Included Where Listed – Fuller builds carry the prep pads, so the kit opens complete.
