Jones Towel clip with side clip 9cm

Clinical Application

This small towel clip is intended primarily for atraumatic fixation of surgical drapes and towels to maintain a sterile field. Its compact 9 cm length makes it suitable for use in confined operative fields, minor procedures, and procedure trays where a secure, low-profile clamp is required. The sharp, transfixing points provide positive purchase on fabric and can be used for short-term holding of friable soft tissue or small devices when appropriate, with awareness of the clip’s penetrating tips.

Design & Configuration

The instrument’s Jones pattern pairs slender shanks with pointed, interlocking jaws to deliver secure bite with minimal bulk. The side clip configuration provides lateral stabilization to help prevent slippage of drapes under tension. A box-lock hinge and ratchet-style locking mechanism permit incremental closure and reliable hold without continuous hand pressure, allowing staff to position and secure barriers quickly during setup and throughout the procedure.
