The STALEKS Expert NE-61-16 professional ingrown nail nippers combine a 16mm narrow blade with safe dull tips for precise removal of ingrown edges on medium and hard nail plates.

Key Features

  • 16mm narrow working part — longer blade reaches into the nail groove with sufficient cutting capacity for harder, thicker nail plates
  • Safe dull tips — blunt geometry prevents injury to surrounding skin and soft tissue during close-in work
  • Multi-stage professional manual sharpening — complete cutting edge closure for clean, precise single cuts
  • AISI 420 stainless steel — full autoclave and dry-heat sterilisation compatibility for professional hygiene
  • Undulated handle surface — textured wavy grip provides reliable, secure hold during clinical procedures

Ideal For

Professional nail technicians and pedicurists who treat ingrown toenails on clients with medium to hard nail plates where a 12mm blade lacks the cutting capacity for a clean, single-action cut.

Care & Sterilisation

To keep your STALEKS Expert ingrown nail nippers in top condition:

• After each use, rinse blades under running water and clean thoroughly with an enzymatic instrument cleaner or disinfectant solution.

• Sterilise in an autoclave (up to 134°C) or dry-heat oven. Dry completely before storage or use.

• Inspect the spring and joint regularly — apply a drop of instrument oil to the spring and pivot point to maintain a smooth, consistent opening stroke.

• Check blade alignment and closure after each sterilisation cycle — the blades should meet evenly. Any lateral movement or incomplete closure should be assessed by a professional before further use.

• Store in a sealed sterile pouch after sterilisation, or in a clean, dry case with blades closed.

FAQs

How are ingrown toenail nippers different from regular nail nippers?

Ingrown nail nippers have a specially narrowed and thinned working part (jaw) that allows access to the corners of the nail where it is growing into the skin. A standard nail nipper has a wider jaw optimised for trimming across the full free edge — it cannot reach deeply into the nail groove without risk of trauma. Ingrown nail nippers also feature safe blunt tips that do not puncture or cut surrounding tissue during the delicate work of removing embedded nail edge material. STALEKS ingrown nail nippers (Expert 61 and Smart 71 series) are designed specifically for professional nail technicians performing this technique.

How do I sterilise STALEKS ingrown nail nippers?

All STALEKS ingrown nail nippers in the Expert, Smart, and PODO series are fully sterilisation-resistant. Rinse under running water, clean with an enzymatic instrument cleaner or disinfectant, then sterilise in an autoclave (up to 134°C) or dry-heat oven. Always dry the nippers completely before storage. For the PODO NP-30-18, full sterilisation is essential as this tool is used in a podology clinical context. Store sterilised instruments in a sealed sterile pouch or a clean, dry case.

How do I choose the right blade length for ingrown nail nippers?

For ingrown nail nippers, blade length determines both the reach into the nail groove and the cutting capacity. A 12mm blade (NE-61-12) is well-suited to thin and soft nail plates — it provides precise, controlled access to the nail corner without removing more nail than necessary. A 14mm blade (NS-71-14) adds versatility for thin and soft nails of different sizes, including larger toenails. A 16mm blade (NE-61-16) is designed for medium and hard nail plates where more cutting power is needed. The PODO NP-30-18 with its 18mm blade is a heavy-duty professional podiatry instrument designed for complex cases involving thicker, more deeply embedded nail material.

What does 'safe blunt tips' mean on ingrown nail nippers?

Safe blunt (also described as 'dull') tips on ingrown nail nippers means the tip of the jaw does not come to a sharp point. On standard nail nippers, a sharp tip can puncture or lacerate the surrounding skin if it slides during the cut. Blunt tips on ingrown nail nippers prevent this — you can guide the narrow jaw into the nail groove and remove embedded nail material with significantly reduced risk of skin trauma. This feature is particularly important for the Expert 61 and Smart 71 series, which are designed to work close to the sensitive skin at the nail edges.
