Tuffier Bone Holding Fcps w/ratchet 27cm

Clinical Application

Provides secure purchase on cortical bone and bone fragments for reduction, provisional fixation, and plate positioning during orthopedic and trauma procedures. Common uses include small- and medium-sized long-bone reductions, temporary stabilization during drilling and screw placement, and manipulation of bone segments during open reduction internal fixation (ORIF).

Design & Configuration

The Tuffier pattern combines a straight shaft and a ratchet-locking handle to maintain stable engagement without continuous manual pressure. At 27 cm overall length the instrument offers extended reach and leverage for access in deep or narrow surgical exposures while preserving tactile control at the handles. The bone-holding jaw profile is designed to maximize grip on cortical surfaces and minimize slippage while the ratchet permits incremental locking and secure retention during implant seating or wound closure.
