Both hold ten instruments. Our Sterilizing Cassette, 10 Instruments measures approx. 20 x 18.5 x 2.5 cm (L x W x D), so it has a larger footprint. This compact version measures approx. 18.5 x 14.5 x 3.5 cm (L x W x D): it takes up less space and is deeper. Check the space in your trays, drawers and autoclave chamber to choose the one that suits your set-up. Why use a cassette instead of pouches? A cassette keeps a set together from chairside through washing, sterilisation and storage. That means less handling of contaminated sharps and a quicker tray set-up, because the whole set is laid out in one go. Can it go in the autoclave? Yes. It is a sterilizing cassette made from AISI 304 stainless steel for steam sterilisation. Follow your autoclave's loading guidance and do not overfill it. What material is it made from? AISI 304 (18/8) stainless steel, a corrosion-resistant grade widely used for items that go through repeated sterilisation. Also available in 5 and 7 instrument sizes. Browse our full Cassettes range.
