The Shaver Leak Tester from Healthmark Industries identifies leaks in arthroscopic shavers caused by failing internal seals that degrade over time due to repeated use and reprocessing. A hand pump and testing stop create positive pressure within
a shaver’s fluid pathway to help reprocessing techs determine if seals are intact or if the shaver needs to be sent out for repair. The tester reduces the potential for cross-contamination and costly repair bills resulting from damage
caused by the repeated use of leaking shavers.
