The Seachris Delrin Cement Scraper is a precision-designed orthopedic instrument used in total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA), especially during revision surgeries where removal of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement is required.
Its primary function is to safely scrape and remove residual cement from around implants, prosthetic components, and hard-to-reach bone surfaces without damaging surrounding bone or metallic implant structures. The curved, low-profile design allows surgeons to access tight posterior and peri-implant spaces where cement is often retained.
Manufactured from high-quality medical-grade Delrin (polyoxymethylene), the scraper provides a balance of rigidity and controlled flexibility. This reduces the risk of scratching or damaging prosthetic surfaces while still allowing effective cement removal. The lightweight design improves handling and precision in deep surgical fields.
The instrument is widely used in revision arthroplasty procedures where cement removal is critical for implant replacement or revision fixation. It is fully reusable and designed for repeated sterilization cycles.
