Why It Matters
During automated cleaning, high-pressure water jets can lift loose instruments off their supports and let them knock against each other. The 81 mm retainer locks across the tray and holds each instrument in position, protecting cutting edges and working tips through every reprocessing cycle. Keeping a spare retainer on hand means a lost or bent bar never takes a complete washtray out of service.
ZEPFcare Reprocessing System
The retainer is part of the ZEPFcare range of washtrays, wash baskets, silicone holders and press pads designed by Helmut Zepf for safe, organised instrument reprocessing. Like the rest of the system it is made in Germany from corrosion-resistant stainless steel and withstands repeated thermal disinfection and steam sterilisation.
