Description

Surgi-OR TC Derf Needle Holders feature short jaws and delicate serrations that hold small needles and commonly 5-0 and 6-0 sutures. Frequently utilized in ophthalmic, dental, or plastic procedures, the shorter length allows the Derf Needle Holder to be easily controlled in smaller surgical areas. Hand-crafted in Pakistan, Surgi-OR TC mid-grade instruments are forged from the highest quality Japanese steel and provide reliable instrumentation for the operating room and other surgical centers. They are designed to stay sharp for a significantly longer period of time than other standard instruments. Sklar permanently bonds tungsten carbide inserts to the instrument, which maximizes control and precision. Surgi-OR instruments are a cost-effective line of instruments that must meet Sklar's quality standards. This product is straight with cross-serrated tips and a length of 4-3/4 inches.
