Heaney Tissue Forceps 2 X 3 Teeth 13.0 cm (5") Cross Serrated Tips

Secure Tissue Manipulation with Precision Serrated Grip

Effective tissue handling in general surgery demands instruments that balance secure grasping with minimal trauma. The Heaney Tissue Forceps address this need by combining a classic 2x3 tooth configuration with cross-serrated tips, providing enhanced friction and stability during delicate procedures. At 12.7cm, this instrument offers a compact profile ideal for precise maneuvering in confined surgical fields where standard long forceps may lack the necessary dexterity. The interlocking teeth engage tissue firmly to prevent slippage, while the serrated surface area distributes pressure more evenly than smooth jaws alone. This design supports controlled manipulation of fascia, skin, and other soft tissues, allowing surgeons to maintain a steady hold without excessive clamping force, thereby facilitating smoother dissection and suturing workflows.

Use Cases

• Grasping and holding skin edges or fascia during closure and suturing tasks
• Manipulating soft tissue structures requiring firm traction without crushing
• Providing stable counter-traction during dissection in limited-access surgical sites
• Securing tissue layers for precise alignment prior to stapling or suturing

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Inspect teeth and serrations for alignment, wear, or damage before each use to supports optimal grip
• Clean thoroughly according to facility protocols to remove biological debris from serrated surfaces and box locks
• Store in a protected environment to prevent tip deformation or interference with other instruments
