Sklarlite Crile Hemostatic Forceps - 7-1/2", Curved, Extra Light

Sklarlite Crile Hemostatic Forceps, also known as a Crile Hemostat, are most commonly used for clamping blood vessels or tissue before cauterization or ligation. Horizontal serrations the entire length of the jaw, and jaws half the length of the shank make this instrument unique. They may also be used for soft tissue dissection typically no deeper than 6-8 inches or in Laparotomy procedures. Sklarlite instruments are a lighter version of standard Sklar instruments. A unique manufacturing process developed by Sklar shaves microns off standard and delicate pattern instruments while maintaining structural integrity and durability. This lightweight modification provides the surgeon with greater control and less fatigue. This product is curved with serrated tips, and an overall length of 7-1/2 inches.
