Exel Sterile Surgical Blades in Carbon Steel
The blades are made from premium quality carbon steel. Computer controlled grinding, sharpening and polishing ensure consistent smooth incision properties. Sterilization is by gamma radiation, and blades are ultrasonically cleaned prior to packing. A vapor corrosion inhibitor paper lining matters most for carbon steel, and it lines every pack with leakage testing and a foil peel pack. Rigidity testing targets blade breakage before a blade ever reaches a tray. Cases hold 1,000 blades as 100 per box across 10 boxes.

Why Teams Choose Exel Sterile Surgical Blades in Carbon Steel
Surgeons who specify carbon steel do it for the edge, and they notice inconsistency immediately. Controlled finishing and corrosion protected packs keep every blade true to the last. The specification survives from the first blade to the last in the case.
- Keen Carbon Edge – carbon steel is the traditional choice for fine incision work.
- Corrosion Guarded – VCI lining is specified in the pack, critical for carbon steel.
- Sizes 11 and 15 – the two most called for carbon steel sizes in one product.
