Ferris Smith Tissue Fcps 1x2T 18cm

Clinical Application

Heavy tissue thumb forceps with a 1x2 tooth tip arrangement designed to provide a secure purchase on dense soft tissues. This configuration is commonly used to grasp fascia, muscle, subcutaneous tissue and other tough tissues during exposure, blunt dissection, retraction for suture placement, and specimen handling. The instrument is suitable for use in general surgery, orthopedic, gynecologic and many soft-tissue procedures where a firm, reliable grip is required.

Design & Configuration

The 1x2 tooth tip concentrates holding force on a small contact area to reduce slippage when manipulating firmer tissues. At 18 cm overall length the geometry balances reach and fine control—long enough to access deeper planes while remaining responsive for delicate movements. The spring-action thumb-forceps format provides direct tactile feedback to the operator, enabling precise tissue handling and controlled traction during wound closure and suturing.
