Cheatle Sterilizer Fcps 27cm

Clinical Application

Designed for sterile handling tasks in the operating room and central sterile services department (CSSD). This long-handled sterilizer forceps is used to retrieve items from autoclave baskets, transfer sterile dressings and packs to the sterile field, and pass instruments or supplies while minimizing direct hand contact and reducing contamination risk. The 27 cm length balances reach into sterilization containers with control at the sterile field.

Design & Configuration

The extended 27 cm shaft provides additional reach for accessing trays and baskets inside sterilizers and for passing items across the sterile field without compromise to the operator's position. Ergonomic handles promote a secure grip and controlled manipulation, while a narrow profile allows precise placement of lightweight supplies and dressings. These design features reduce the need to reposition bulky trays and help maintain asepsis during setup and dressing changes.
