How to Use	N/A To achieve the best results when cutting wires and pins, follow these simple steps: Choose the appropriate cutter for the wire diameter you want to cut. Do not exceed the maximum capacity marked on each cutter. Cut wire in the middle of the jaw-not on the tip or in the corner. Keep the jaw at right angles to the piece being cut. Do not twist or turn cutter.	N/A To achieve the best results when cutting wires and pins, follow these simple steps: Choose the appropriate cutter for the wire diameter you want to cut.

Important Note on Maximum Capacities	N/A Modern rods and pins vary greatly in hardness and tensile strength. All maximum capacities noted are based on tests using standard strength Tecomet® implant material. Cutting material which exceeds our standard strength ratings, such as certain high strength spinal rods, may damage or shorten the life of cutting edges and voids the instrument warranty.

Additional Information	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A The Tecomet® Wire Cutter with Safety Inserts can help prevent the potentially dangerous occurrence of flying K-Wire pieces in the O.R. This instrument is designed to hold the cut piece of wire in its silicon inserts. After cutting, the remnant wire can be safely disposed of, thus preventing cut pieces from falling into the wound site or flying into the air. The silicon inserts are autoclavable and long-lasting. And as inserts are not glued into the jaws, replacement is fast and easy. Simply insert the new ones by pressing them into place. Inserts do not fall out or move under normal circumstances.
