12 LighTouch Needle Holder straight lock

Extended Reach and Controlled Needle Handling

The 12" LighTouch Needle Holder straight lock is a long, straight needle holder designed to grasp and guide suture needles during operative closure. Its extended length supports access to deeper or less direct working areas, while the locking design helps maintain a secure hold during needle positioning and passage. The straight profile provides a predictable instrument orientation for controlled handling and clear visualization of the working end. Suitable for workflows in General Surgery and Neurosurgery, it supports deliberate needle manipulation where reach, stability, and consistent hand control are important to the procedure.

Use Cases

• Grasp and position suture needles during closure tasks in General Surgery.
• Support needle handling in Neurosurgery workflows where extended reach is useful.
• Use the straight profile for predictable alignment when guiding a needle through the operative field.
• Engage the lock when a maintained needle hold is helpful during controlled positioning and passage.
