Kilner Artery Fcps str 14cm

Clinical Application

Designed to provide secure temporary occlusion of small to medium-caliber vessels and soft tissue, this straight Kilner artery forceps is used to establish hemostasis during dissection, ligation, and preparation for suture or vessel ligation. The 14 cm length balances reach and tactile control, making it suitable for general surgical procedures, minor vascular work, ENT, plastic and reconstructive cases, and routine soft-tissue handling in ambulatory surgery settings.

Design & Configuration

The straight geometry places the jaws in-line with the shaft for direct visual and finger-tip control in superficial and moderately deep fields. Serrated jaws provide a consistent, non-slip grip on tissue and vessels, while a locking ratchet permits hands-free clamping once the desired pressure is achieved. The overall configuration favors precise occlusion with minimal bulk in the operative field.
