Clinical Application
Curved, 1x2-tooth hemostatic forceps designed for reliable vessel occlusion and focal tissue control. The instrument provides positive purchase on small-to-medium vessels and soft tissue during hemostasis, suture placement and blunt dissection. Commonly used in general surgery, vascular, gynecologic and minor procedures where a secure, atraumatic clamp is required and where a curved approach improves access.
Design & Configuration
The curved shaft and angled jaws allow approach around structures and into deep or confined operative fields while keeping the operator's hand clear of the line of sight. The 1x2 tooth tip offers a focal gripping point that secures tissue or a vessel with reduced slippage compared with plain serrations, while limiting crushing surface area relative to multi-tooth patterns. A ratchet locking mechanism on the handles provides sustained clamping pressure without continuous manual force, supporting hemostasis and temporary vessel control.
