Clinical Application
Designed for precise tissue handling, the 1x2T configuration is used to grasp and stabilize skin, subcutaneous tissue, and other soft tissues during wound closure, suturing, minor procedures, and open surgical exposures. The single-tooth opposite two-tooth tip provides a secure focal grip that minimizes slippage when positioning tissue, holding suture ends, or manipulating delicate structures.
Design & Configuration
The thumb-forceps style offers tactile feedback and fine control for one-handed tissue manipulation. The 1x2 tooth arrangement concentrates holding force at discrete contact points, improving purchase on tissue without broadly compressing or crushing it. At 13 cm overall length, the instrument balances reach and precision—suitable for superficial and moderately deep exposures where controlled handling is required.
