Description

Sklartech 5000 Babcock Forceps are non-perforating forceps used to grasp delicate tissue during laparoscopic procedures. They are frequently used in intestinal procedures. Babcock Forceps are similar to Allis forceps; however, they are less traumatic due to their wider, rounded grasping surface. The jaws are circumferential, and the tips are triangular and fenestrated with horizontal serrations. They are particularly useful for grasping tube-shaped structures. Sklartech 5000 Laparoscopic instruments offered as complete sets or replacement inserts only. Each complete set includes a handle, locking collar, insulated shaft, and insert with the tip. Sklartech 5000 replacement inserts are interchangeable with ratcheted and non-ratcheted handles based on procedure or surgeon preference. This product is a complete set. It has 10mm tips, an overall length of 33 centimeters, and a non-ratchet handle.
