Gerald Thumb Forceps

Tungsten carbide jaws Babcock Tissue Forceps have jaws that are made from tungsten carbide, the hardest metal made for surgical instruments. Precision-milled serrations are formed onto the tungsten carbide inserts, resulting in pyramid-shaped teeth that provide a non-slip grip. Pyramid-shaped teeth align perfectly with each other to provide a durable and reliable grasp of the most delicate or toughest tissues, as well as needles, sutures, dressing materials and delicate vessels. Smooth tungsten carbide inserts are also available for delicate procedures. Spring tension allows for surgeons to maintain proper and consistent position, ensuring optimal grip without having to apply excess force. These forceps also feature gold-plated handles.

Allis-Baby Tissue Forceps 4x5 teeth Allis-Baby Tissue Forceps contain 4x5 teeth on the tips of the jaws. These jaws are offered in a delicate or extra-delicate style depending on the type of tissue, bowel, or skin that is being held. The 5" or 5 ½" lengths with ring handles are incorporated for added control and maneuverability.

Longitudinal serrations, 1x2 teeth, straight Allen-Kocher Artery and Intestinal Forceps are designed with longitudinal serrations on straight jaws. These ratchet ring-handled forceps also contain 1x2 teeth on the tips of the jaws that interlock in order to compress tissue in which blood is being depleted.
