Clinical Application
Designed for secure tissue handling in general surgical procedures, these forceps provide focused traction on skin, subcutaneous tissue, fascia and other soft tissues during dissection, suturing, wound edge approximation and handling of dressings. The 1x2 tooth tip offers a reliable grip that reduces slippage when placing sutures or controlling small tissue segments; care should be taken when using on friable tissues to avoid tearing.
Design & Configuration
The 1x2 tooth configuration concentrates gripping force at a small contact point to maximize purchase with minimal surface crush. The thumb-forceps style hand-held design gives tactile feedback and fine control for precise tissue manipulation. A 25 cm overall length extends reach into deeper wounds or body cavities while maintaining hand stability at the proximal end, making this configuration useful for procedures where additional depth or working distance is required.
