Sklar Allis Tissue Forceps, Atraumatic Teeth
A widely used Allis tissue forceps available from 4 to 8 inches with several tooth patterns, including a delicate atraumatic option. It is a standard item in professional surgical instrument trays.
The Sklar Allis Tissue Forceps is one of the most widely used tissue grasping instruments in surgery, used to hold and retract tissue firmly while its ratcheted handle locks the jaws closed to maintain grip without continuous hand pressure. This listing brings together fifteen variants of the classic Allis pattern, spanning sizes from 4 inches up to 8 inches and beyond, in delicate profile options and tooth patterns ranging from 2x2 and 3x4 to 4x5 and 5x6 teeth, plus an atraumatic DeBakey style 2x2 rows of fine teeth for gentler handling of delicate tissue.
This breadth of configuration means the same core instrument can be matched to almost any tissue handling task, from fine delicate work to firmer grasp of tougher structures, simply by selecting the appropriate size and tooth pattern. Because Allis forceps of some configuration appear in nearly every general, gynaecologic, urologic and plastic surgery tray, facilities typically stock a wide range of sizes and patterns from this family to cover routine case needs.
