Are these forceps suitable for tight surgical spaces?

Do the jaws provide a secure grip on tissue?

Yes, the 0.8mm jaws feature a serrated working edge designed to provide a firm, reliable grip on both tissue and packing materials during procedures.

Can these instruments be reused after sterilization?

Yes, these are reusable surgical instruments. Please note they are shipped non-sterile, so they must be properly cleaned and sterilized according to your facility’s protocols before their first and subsequent uses.

Are these forceps made with latex materials?
