Sklar Tungsten Carbide Atraumatic Allis Tissue Forceps are finger ring, ratcheted forceps used for grasping organs and slippery or dense tissue. They are commonly used with tonsil, vaginal, breast, and thyroid tissue. TC instruments 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. TC instruments are identified by gold handles. This product is straight with cross-serrated tips and an overall length of 7-1/2 inches.
