The Cardinal Health 3 Gallon Sharps Container with Rotor and Hinged Opening Lid is a multipurpose sharps container with beneficial features to set itself apart from the rest of the options you have available for sharps containers.
The Cardinal Health 8527R Transparent Red Multi-Purpose Sharps Container, which is formerly the Kendall 8527R, has a capacity of up to 3 gallons, which is convenient enough for small medical facilities and clinics when disposing of items like needles or IV lines. When using the sharps container, you will notice that it includes a rotor opening lid, which helps close the sharps container with the rotating of the lid and can be done with a one-hand motion. The complete entirety of the lid is made to hinge open; this neat little feature allows you to dispose of clean-up rags such as the Hospeco Surgical Huck Towels by simply opening up the other side of the lid and placing the used rags inside.
The Cardinal Health 13.75H X 13.75W X 6D Inch Sharps Container is easy to identify because it is designed with a translucent red base. The translucence is helpful in trying to see if the sharps container is near reaching capacity -- prompting you to replace it soon. Final closure of the sharps container is available with a final-locking feature that does not allow any more items to be disposed and cannot be opened.
