Backhaus Towel Fcps 15cm

Clinical Application

Backhaus towel forceps provide reliable fixation of surgical drapes, towels, and lightweight dressings to skin or soft tissue during operative and procedural workflows. Their penetrating tips give secure purchase through drape material and superficial tissue, helping maintain a sterile field and steady exposure in general surgery, dermatology, minor procedures, ambulatory settings, and clinics. Use with care on fragile or compromised skin due to the penetrating tip design.

Design & Configuration

The instrument’s scissor-like ring handles with a ratchet lock allow the clamp to engage and maintain a consistent grip without continuous manual pressure. The box-lock pivot provides stable alignment of the jaws for repeatable performance. The sharp, penetrating tip geometry is optimized to pierce and hold drape material and superficial tissue securely, minimizing slippage during instrument or patient movement.
