Sklar Alligator Forceps, Sterile, 5.5 inch

5 inches, supplied in a case of 25, and shaped with a long, narrow jaw resembling an alligator's snout for reaching into confined spaces to grasp small objects or tissue. This straightforward hand-held forceps is distinct from the rotating, insulated laparoscopic version elsewhere in the range, as it is a standard grasping instrument intended for direct manual use rather than laparoscopic access.

Alligator forceps of this pattern are commonly used in ENT practice for removing foreign bodies from the ear, nose or throat, as well as in general clinical settings for grasping small items in confined or narrow anatomical spaces. Being supplied sterile and for single use removes the need for reprocessing between patients, supporting infection control in outpatient and emergency settings where quick, disposable access to this instrument is valuable.

This forceps is used by ENT specialists, emergency physicians and general clinicians wherever a fine, narrow-jawed grasping tool is needed. Clinics and emergency departments typically keep a case on hand given how routinely foreign body removal presents.
