Waugh Tissue Fcps criss cross serr 1x2T 20cm

Clinical Application

Designed to provide secure, controlled tissue handling, this Waugh-style tissue forceps is used for grasping skin, fascia, subcutaneous tissue, and other soft tissues during closure, dissection, and suturing. The 1x2 tooth configuration gives a focal grip that resists slippage while minimizing crush injury to delicate tissues, making it suitable for general surgery, abdominal procedures, and routine soft-tissue manipulation in ambulatory and hospital settings.

Design & Configuration

The criss-cross serration across the jaw surface increases friction between tissue and instrument, reducing the need for excessive grip pressure and improving control in wet or bloody fields. The 1x2 tooth arrangement places a single opposing tooth over two complementary teeth to concentrate contact points for a secure hold on tissue edges and sutures. A 20 cm overall length gives moderate reach for deeper wounds and operative fields while remaining maneuverable for fine tissue handling at the bedside or on the operative table.
