Instruments Care

Care & Handling

At SUFIVET, we believe that the performance and longevity of your instruments depend not only on precision manufacturing but also on proper care and handling. To help our customers get the best results, we provide essential guidelines for maintaining veterinary, surgical, farrier, and equestrian tools.

General Care Guidelines

  • Always clean instruments immediately after use to prevent residue build-up.

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and corrosive substances.

  • Inspect regularly for wear, cracks, or damage.

  • Store instruments in a dry, well-ventilated place to prevent rust.

Veterinary & Livestock Tools

  • Rinse tools thoroughly after each use to remove biological material.

  • Disinfect with appropriate veterinary-grade solutions.

  • Dry completely before storage to avoid corrosion.

  • Sharpen blades (castrators, clippers, etc.) periodically for maximum efficiency.

Surgical & Dental Instruments

  • Handle with care to avoid damage to delicate tips and edges.

  • Follow proper sterilization protocols (autoclave or chemical sterilization).

  • Use protective trays or pouches during sterilization to avoid scratching.

  • Lubricate hinged instruments to maintain smooth operation.

Farrier Tools

  • Wipe clean after trimming or shoeing to remove dirt and hoof residue.

  • Oil blades and joints (nippers, cutters, knives) regularly.

  • Store rasps in protective sleeves to prevent dulling.

  • Keep tools dry and avoid dropping to maintain alignment and sharpness.

Horse Riding Equestrian Metal

  • Proper dusting and washing  with warm water after each use to remove stains, sweat, or dirt.

  • Dry thoroughly to prevent rust or tarnish.

  • Polish stainless-steel and iron hardware when needed.

  • Store away from damp conditions for long-lasting shine and durability.
