Tissue Fcps USA model 1x2T 18.5cm

Clinical Application

The 1x2 tooth tissue forceps provides secure, interlocking purchase on skin, fascia and other moderate‑to‑firm soft tissues, making it well suited for tasks such as wound approximation, suture placement and tissue manipulation during general, plastic, and minor surgical procedures. The 1x2 tooth configuration offers reliable hold with reduced slippage compared with plain atraumatic tips; it is therefore commonly used when a firm grip is required without the need for a locking mechanism.

Design & Configuration

The non‑locking thumb forceps design allows precise fingertip control and rapid repositioning during suturing and soft tissue handling. The 1x2 tooth tip features a single tooth on one jaw engaging two teeth on the opposing jaw to provide a stable, interlocking grip that concentrates holding force at the contact points for secure manipulation. The 18.5 cm length balances reach into operative fields with tactile control at the fingertips, making it practical for both superficial and moderately deep work.
