Charnley Suture Fcps w/1x2T, 18cm

Clinical Application

These suture forceps are designed to provide secure, controlled handling of suture material and fine tissue during wound closure and soft-tissue approximation. The 1x2 tooth tip gives a reliable purchase on suture and delicate tissue, facilitating knot tying, suture placement, and trimming maneuvers in general surgery, plastic surgery, ENT, and other procedures requiring precise soft-tissue control.

Design & Configuration

The 1x2 tooth configuration offers a balance between secure grip and atraumatic handling: a single opposing tooth engages material while the two-tooth side distributes pressure to reduce slip. The 18 cm overall length provides extended reach for deeper cavities and improved working distance in the operative field while retaining fingertip control for fine movements. The slim jaw geometry supports precise placement of sutures without excessive bulk in confined spaces.
