Controlled spread, hands-free.
Crank-driven rack
Turn the handle to advance the movable arm along the toothed rack, one step at a time.
Self-retaining
The rack holds the spread, so the ribs stay open without an assistant.
Curved blades
Two curved blades seat against the ribs to distribute force across the incision.
Built to the standard practices expect.
German craftsmanship
