USA Model Tissue Fcps 3x4T 14cm

Clinical Application

Designed for controlled tissue handling, these 3x4-tooth tissue forceps provide a secure grip on skin, fascia and other relatively robust soft tissues. They are commonly used for wound edge retraction, suture placement, tissue stabilization during dissection, and general-purpose grasping in ambulatory surgery, minor procedures and operative settings where a firm, positive hold is required. The 3x4 tooth arrangement offers improved purchase on tougher tissue compared with fine atraumatic forceps, and users should avoid using the instrument on fragile structures such as bowel serosa or delicate neurovascular tissue to prevent crushing injury.

Design & Configuration

The thumb-forceps configuration gives direct fingertip control for fine manipulations and rapid engagement/release during suturing and wound handling. The asymmetric 3x4 tooth pattern concentrates contact points to reduce slippage and maintain tissue position under tension. At 14 cm overall length, the geometry balances reach and tactile feedback—suitable for superficial and moderate-depth tasks without excessive shaft length that can reduce manual precision.
