BR Surgical TEBBETTS Type Needle Holder, Delicate Jaw (7000 teeth per sq. inch), 5½" TC

Yes, the 7000 teeth per square inch design is specifically engineered for maximum stability. This fine cross-hatching ensures a secure hold on delicate surgical needles, preventing slippage while protecting the integrity of the needle shaft and suture material.

The Tungsten Carbide (TC) inserts provide several performance advantages:

• Superior Hardness: TC is significantly harder than standard surgical steel.
• Longevity: The inserts ensure the gripping surfaces maintain their precision and sharpness over repeated use.
• Reliability: This material choice reduces the need for frequent maintenance or replacement.

Absolutely. The 5½-inch length and the delicate jaw configuration make this needle holder an ideal choice for:

• Microsurgical techniques.
• Cardiovascular procedures.
• Ophthalmic surgery.
• Any operation involving fine-gauge sutures where precision control is critical.

These instruments are supplied in Factory New condition, coming directly from the manufacturer. As a precision surgical instrument, they meet high quality standards for performance and are ready to be processed according to your facility’s sterilization protocols.

With a weight of only 0.01 pounds, this instrument is designed for optimal balance. The lightweight profile helps reduce hand fatigue during intricate and lengthy surgical procedures, allowing the surgeon to maintain steady, precise control.

No, the delicate jaw is specifically calibrated to handle very fine gauge sutures safely. The high-density tooth pattern provides a firm grip through structural stability rather than force, which minimizes the risk of crushing or damaging sensitive suture materials.

The BR Surgical TEBBETTS Type Needle Holder is engineered for peak precision. Every aspect—from the 7000 teeth/sq. inch jaw pattern to the TC tip integration—is designed to ensure the needle remains fixed in the desired position throughout the suturing process.

The Tebbetts-type design is synonymous with control and finesse. It is specialized for surgeons who require a high degree of confidence when maneuvering needles within delicate operative fields, ensuring that every movement is transmitted accurately from the hand to the needle tip.
