Sklar Backhaus Towel Clamp, with Tube Holder
A classic ratcheted towel clamp that secures surgical drapes, with select sizes fitted with a tube holder, offered in seven length options. It is supplied for repeated sterilization and reuse in hospital and clinic settings.
The Sklar Backhaus Towel Clamp is one of the most widely recognised instruments in the operating room, a simple ratcheted clamp with sharp, curved tips used to secure surgical drapes to the patient and to each other around the operative field. This listing spans seven sizes, from 3-1/2 inches up to 6 inches, including versions built with an integrated tube holder that lets the clamp also grip and route tubing such as suction lines or electrocautery cords away from the surgical field, keeping the workspace tidy.
The range of sizes allows a surgical team to select the handle length that suits the drape thickness and the amount of leverage needed to set the clamp securely. Because draping is required for virtually every surgical procedure, Backhaus towel clamps are stocked in large numbers by hospitals and used across every surgical specialty, from general and orthopedic surgery to cardiac and neurosurgery.
These are durable, simple mechanical instruments that are easy to clean, sterilize, and reuse many times over their service life.
