Zoellner Detachable end 24 s.w.g,

Clinical Application

This Zoellner detachable-end instrument is intended for the secure handling and manipulation of fine gauge wire (24 s.w.g) and similarly thin sutures or ligatures. It is useful in procedures where controlled, slip-resistant grip of narrow wire is required—examples include microsurgical work, ENT, oral/maxillofacial and reconstructive cases, and any operative setting that requires precise positioning or temporary fixation of fine wire without crushing or deforming it.

Design & Configuration

The detachable distal end provides modularity: clinicians can exchange, replace, or sterilize the working tip independently of the handle. A narrow jaw geometry or specialized slot at the tip is optimized to retain 24 s.w.g wire, minimizing rotation or slippage while preserving wire integrity. The Zoellner pattern delivers a long, slender reach with tactile feedback that facilitates fine manipulation in confined fields. Detachable tips reduce instrument changes on the sterile field and simplify maintenance and reprocessing.

Instrument Specifications

• Instrument type: Forceps (Zoellner pattern) with detachable end
• Configuration: Interchangeable distal end designed to secure 24 s.w.g wire
• Typical use: Handling fine gauge wire, delicate sutures, and small tissue/graft manipulation
• Material: Surgical-grade stainless steel
• Reusable design for repeated sterilization cycles

Material & Construction

Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel for corrosion resistance and durability in repeated sterilization cycles. The detachable interface is precision-machined to ensure reliable tip alignment and consistent grip between handle and working end. Surfaces are finished to facilitate cleaning and minimize crevices where bioburden could accumulate.

Quality & Compliance

Manufactured by FDA-registered OEM facilities and produced under strict quality control standards.
