Splinters are one of the most common minor injuries in trade, construction, timber, agricultural, and outdoor work environments — and attempting removal with tweezers alone on a deeply embedded or fine splinter frequently pushes the material deeper or breaks it at the skin surface. A splinter probe is the correct tool for controlled, precise splinter removal without enlarging the entry wound or fragmenting the foreign body before it is out.

The AeroProbe Splinter Probe is a 3.7cm hygienically packed single-use probe designed for safe, effective splinter removal in first aid settings. Box of 100 — the correct format for workplace first aid rooms, high-use site kits, and any environment where splinters are a daily occurrence rather than an occasional incident.

• Precise tip for controlled splinter removal — 3.7cm working length The fine probe tip allows the first aider to work around the splinter, free the embedded end, and lift it clear without enlarging the entry point or fragmenting the foreign body. At 3.7cm the probe provides adequate working length for controlled manipulation without the bulk of a full instrument. The correct tool for fine splinters, wood fibres, and metal swarf that tweezers cannot grip cleanly.
• Single-use, hygienically packed — eliminates cross-contamination risk Each probe is hygienically packed for single use. Using a probe that has already been used on another patient introduces contamination risk to the wound site — single-use construction eliminates that entirely. In a high-use workplace first aid room where multiple workers present with splinters across a shift, the single-use format is the correct standard.
• Box of 100 — suited to workplace first aid rooms and high-use site kits 100 probes per box provides adequate supply for a busy workplace first aid room, trade site, or agricultural operation where splinter removal is a regular task. The box format allows straightforward restocking and audit tracking — replace the box when depleted rather than counting individual probes.
• Used alongside tweezers for complete splinter removal capability The probe frees and positions the splinter; tweezers grip and extract it. Both tools working together is the correct approach for embedded splinters — the probe alone may not be sufficient for removal, and tweezers alone cannot free a deeply embedded foreign body without the probe doing the preliminary work.
