Description

Sklar Black DeBakey Atraumatic Tissue Forceps are a versatile thumb forceps used for grasping fine tissue during laser surgeries. It is available in multiple lengths, straight or angled, and with a variety of tip dimensions. They are commonly used in vascular and general surgery. Sklar Black Laser instruments feature a non-reflective black polymer coating applied over the sandblasted instrument developed specifically for laser surgeries. This safe, durable coating reduces laser reflection to less than one-tenth of a percent, ensuring a safer surgical environment for patients and surgical staff. All Sklar Black coated instruments comply with biological testing requirements for cytotoxicity, sensitization regulatory, and ISO 10993 requirements. They also comply with the Pre-Vacuum and Gravity Cycle Steam Sterilization Validation of ANSI/AAMI ST79. Sklar Black laser coatings are guaranteed for one year against manufacturing defects. This product is straight with 2 mm tips, 1x2 atraumatic teeth, and a length of 9-1/2 inches.
