Clinical Application
Designed to provide a secure temporary grip on bone during open orthopedic and trauma procedures, this straight bone‑holding forceps is used to manipulate, reduce and maintain alignment of bone fragments while definitive fixation (screws, plates or external fixation) is applied. Typical applications include long-bone fracture reduction, small-bone manipulation in hand/foot surgery, maxillofacial fragment control and assistance with spinal exposure. The instrument's firm, toothed jaw engagement minimizes slippage when controlled traction or counter-traction is required.
Design & Configuration
The straight geometry and 28 cm working length provide extended reach and line-of-sight control for deeper exposures without excessive hand crossover. Interlocking toothed jaws deliver concentrated bite and rotational stability on cortical surfaces, helping maintain reduction during drilling or plate positioning. A locking handle mechanism secures the jaws at the chosen tension, allowing the assistant or surgeon to maintain fixation hands‑free while other tasks are performed.
Instrument Specifications
- Straight, 28 cm overall length
- Interlocking toothed bone‑holding jaw pattern for secure cortical purchase
- Locking handle to maintain grip and tension
- Reusable design intended for standard hospital sterilization workflows
Material & Construction
Constructed from surgical‑grade stainless steel for corrosion resistance and durability in repeated sterilization cycles. The robust jaw geometry and box‑lock construction are engineered for repeated engagement with cortical bone while maintaining jaw alignment and bite integrity.
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.
