Clinical Application
Provides temporary, atraumatic occlusion of small to medium-caliber vessels and tubular structures during open and microvascular procedures. Commonly used to control bleeding in confined surgical fields, stabilize vessels during anastomosis, and provide short-term hemostasis during reconstructive, ENT, ophthalmic, and general surgical cases where precise, focal clamping is required.
Design & Configuration
The curved geometry permits access around tissue contours and within shallow cavities while keeping the jaw interface parallel to the vessel for secure occlusion. The short, spring-actuated design delivers consistent closing force and rapid application/release, enabling fine control in microsurgical and delicate soft-tissue work. The compact 6.0 cm length balances tactile feedback with visibility in small operative fields.
Instrument Specifications

Material & Construction
Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel to ensure durability and resistance to corrosion under repeated sterilization cycles. The spring mechanism is integral to the body to provide consistent, repeatable closing force. Designed for repeated use and routine sterilization in sterile processing departments.
Quality & Compliance
Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
Brand Comparison
Comparable in form and function to equivalent instruments offered by major US medical suppliers.
