Clinical Application
Provides firm, secure tissue purchase for traction and manipulation. Commonly used in gynecologic procedures—such as uterine and cervical traction during IUD placement, dilation and curettage, vaginal surgery, and portions of hysterectomy—or in any case requiring controlled traction of firm soft tissue. The 2x2 tooth configuration gives focal grip to reduce slippage when holding the cervix, uterus, or similar structures.
Design & Configuration
The straight shaft delivers a direct line of pull for precise traction and access in confined anatomical fields. A ratchet-style locking mechanism allows sustained hold without constant manual force, improving control during suturing, exposure, or instrument exchanges. The 6 mm jaw width with 2x2 teeth balances concentrated bite force against the goal of minimizing unnecessary tissue crush when controlled traction is required.
