Custom Stainless Steel Capillary Tube for Precision Blade Manufacturing
Surgical Shaver Blades: Precision Cutting for Minimally Invasive Surgery
Surgical shaver blades are critical components in arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgical systems. These rotating blades cut and remove soft tissue, bone, and cartilage with precision, while the hollow design allows simultaneous irrigation and aspiration. As a medical shaver blade OEM manufacturer, we produce high-quality stainless steel shaver blades for orthopedic, neurosurgical, and ENT applications.
Types of Surgical Shaver Blades
Orthopedic Shaver Blades
| Size | OD (mm) | Cutting Window | Applications |

Material & Manufacturing
Material Selection
| Grade | Hardness | Properties | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 420J2 | 50-55 HRC | High hardness, wear resistance, sharp edge retention | Cutting blades, shaver blades |
| 440C | 58-62 HRC | Ultra-high hardness, exceptional wear resistance | Premium blades, long-life cutting |
| 316L | ≤95 HRB | Biocompatible, corrosion resistant | Blade housing, non-cutting components |
Manufacturing Process
- Material Preparation — Stainless steel rod/tube with certified composition
- CNC Machining — Precision milling of cutting window, helical grooves, and tip geometry
- Heat Treatment — Hardening to 50-62 HRC depending on grade
- Grinding & Polishing — Cutting edge sharpening, surface polishing to Ra ≤0.2μm
- Electropolishing — Enhanced corrosion resistance, ultra-smooth surface
- Laser Marking — Size, type, lot number, UDI marking
- Cleaning & Packaging — Ultrasonic cleaning, cleanroom packaging, sterile or non-sterile
- 100% Inspection — Dimensional, cutting edge, surface quality, hardness verification
Key Performance Requirements
| Parameter | Requirement | Test Method |
|---|---|---|
| Cutting Performance | Clean, efficient tissue removal without clogging | Simulated tissue cutting test |
| Edge Sharpness | Consistent sharp edge, no burrs | Optical microscopy, SEM |
| Wear Resistance | Maintains cutting performance over specified cycles | Cyclic cutting test |
| Corrosion Resistance | No pitting or discoloration after sterilization | Salt spray test, autoclave cycling |
| Biocompatibility | ISO 10993 compliant | Cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation |
