An investment in quality
A guide entitled, "Recommended Procedures for Care, Maintenance and Sterilization of QFC Instruments" is available on page 60 of our main catalogue (we can also email you a copy).
- All QFC instruments are supplied non-sterile unless specified otherwise. When you purchase QFC instruments, you are investing in quality products. Care and maintenance will prolong their lives and afford the user with many years of trouble free service.
- After removing from packaging, QFC instruments should be cleaned and sterilized before use.
- During cleaning and sterilization cycles do not mix dissimilar metal instruments. Keep stainless steel / chromium plated / silver plated instruments, etc. separate and do not process in the same cycle; otherwise corrosion or staining may occur on the stainless steel instruments.
- In all procedures, ensure that the instruments are in their unlocked, open positions and that the joints are exposed to the cleaning/ sterilizing processes. If instruments are locked during sterilizing, stresses in the joints will be produced which will eventually weaken the joints and lead to fractures.
