Clinical Application
This tip is supplied as a tip-only replacement for Bruenings-style forceps and is intended to restore or convert a reusable handle to a 3 mm oval straight tip geometry. The narrow, oval profile provides broad contact with soft tissue for atraumatic grasping, gentle retraction and precise suture handling. It is suitable for procedures requiring delicate tissue control such as microvascular, reconstructive, ENT and other soft-tissue surgeries where minimizing tissue trauma is critical.
Design & Configuration
The straight 3 mm oval tip concentrates contact along a smooth, rounded surface rather than sharp points, reducing localized pressure and the risk of crush injury. The Figure 3 geometry offers a balance between tactile feedback and surface area, facilitating secure handling of vessels, membranes and fine tissue without excessive compression. As a tip-only component, it allows maintenance teams and procurement staff to replace worn or damaged tips economically without replacing the entire instrument handle.
