Chain With Weight 645g
Abdominal Retractors
Chain With Weight which may also be known as the Initial Incision Retractor, is a self-retaining retractor, most commonly used during arthroplasty of the hip. It is used when initial incisions are made and maintains exposure of the hip area so the surgeon has an unobstructed view. This product is the weight and chain only, which are used to tilt the retractor 45 degrees, providing a greater view of the anterior side of the hip joint. Its overall length is 790 mm.
The Chain with Weight 645g by SMS Instruments is a precision-manufactured surgical accessory designed to serve as a counterbalance or tension weight in retraction systems, headframe assemblies, and positioning equipment. This essential tool is used in ENT, neurosurgery, orthopedics, and other specialties where stable and controlled retraction or positioning is critical to procedural success.
Weighing 645 grams, the SMS Chain with Weight provides just the right amount of counter-traction to retractors or clamps without exerting excessive force. The attached durable chain ensures secure anchoring to surgical frames, arms, or retraction systems, offering consistent gravitational pull during procedures.
This counterweight is especially useful in setups involving self-retaining retractors, such as the Leyla retractor, Greenberg frame, or cervical retraction systems, where smooth tension is required to keep soft tissues or neural structures gently retracted. Its compact size and balanced design allow for precise alignment without cluttering the surgical field.
Manufactured using CE-certified stainless steel, the SMS Chain with Weight is fully autoclavable, rust-resistant, and built to withstand repeated sterilization cycles in high-demand operating rooms. The non-slip chain links and solid weight core guarantee safety and durability in sterile conditions.
As part of the Hooks and Retractors accessories by NAZMED SMS SDN BHD, this weight is trusted by surgical teams globally for its reliability, precision, and ergonomic utility in dynamic surgical environments. Whether for use in spine surgery, ENT, or complex retraction procedures, the SMS Chain with Weight 645g ensures optimal control and balance.
