Sklar Alligator Grasping Forceps, 220mm
A 220mm alligator grasping forceps used to grasp tissue or foreign material at extended working depths during endoscopic procedures. It is reused across procedures after cleaning and sterilisation.
The Sklar Alligator Grasping Forceps at 220mm is a longer instrument within the alligator forceps family, built to reach tissue or foreign material positioned deeper within a body cavity or working channel than a standard shorter alligator forceps can access. Its slim shaft is designed to pass through narrow endoscopic or minimally invasive access routes while still delivering the alligator jaw's characteristic wide bite at the working tip.
This particular length was separated from a broader group of similarly named alligator grasping forceps that share a parent product name but differ meaningfully in diameter, length and handle configuration, since those differences change how suitable each version is for a given procedure depth. Endoscopy suites and minimally invasive surgery centres that perform procedures at varying depths typically keep more than one length of alligator grasping forceps in stock, choosing the 220mm option specifically for deeper or longer access routes where shorter instruments would not comfortably reach the target.
