Clinical Application
Designed to secure surgical drapes, towels and other sterile linens to the patient or to adjacent drapes. The pointed tips provide a firm, penetrating bite to soft fabric and skin (when appropriate for draping), helping maintain a stable sterile field during general, minor and outpatient procedures. Commonly used during operative setup, in procedure rooms, and in situations where a compact, reliable clamp is required for retraction of drape edges or temporary fixation of tubing and devices.
Design & Configuration
The pointed, penetrating jaw geometry concentrates holding force at the tip, giving a secure grip on fabric and allowing the instrument to resist displacement under tension. The 9 cm overall length provides a low-profile working length that improves access in confined surgical fields and reduces instrument bulk on the drape. Narrow jaws minimize the footprint while delivering a positive hold, reducing the need for repeated repositioning during case setup.
