Collier Needle Holder 12.5cm

Clinical Application

Designed for precision needle handling in procedures that require delicate suture control and fine tissue approximation. The short, fine jaws provide secure purchase on small needles and allow controlled passes in confined operative fields such as ophthalmic, ENT, plastic and microsurgery. The 12.5 cm overall length balances reach with tactile feedback, making it suitable for both superficial closures and deeper, delicate reconstructions where instrument bulk must be minimized.

Design & Configuration

The instrument uses a ring-handle design with a ratchet locking mechanism and a box-lock hinge to provide stable, repeatable clamping of the needle. The short, narrow jaws minimize needle wobble and increase tactile transmission to the surgeon’s hand, improving accuracy when placing fine sutures. The 12.5 cm length offers a compromise between control and access—long enough to reach slightly deeper operative sites while remaining maneuverable in tight anatomical corridors.
