Cheatle Sterilizer Fcps serr 28cm

Clinical Application

Long, serrated Cheatle sterilizer forceps provide secure handling of sterile dressings, sponges, packs and small instruments without direct hand contact. The 28 cm length offers extended reach for retrieving items from instrument trays, dressing packs, or deeper cavities during procedures and postoperative dressing changes. They are commonly used in general surgery, minor procedures, wound care, and sterile field management at clinics and ambulatory surgery centers.

Design & Configuration

The straight, elongated shaft delivers reach and control while maintaining a safe distance from the sterile field. Serrated jaws improve purchase on wet or slippery materials such as gauze and sponges, reducing slippage when transferring or removing dressings. The Cheatle pattern balances length and jaw geometry to minimize hand fatigue and improve visibility when working across an open field or within dressing trays.
