Sklar Clip Applier, Angled 25 Degrees

The Sklar Clip Applier is a 7-1/2 inch medium sized instrument with a 25 degree angled tip, used to load and place metal or polymer surgical clips onto blood vessels or ducts as an alternative or supplement to suture ligation. The angled tip allows the surgeon to approach a vessel from a favorable angle within the surgical field, particularly useful in deeper or more confined areas where a straight applier would be harder to position accurately.

This listing covers the applier across four size variants, giving surgical teams the choice of jaw and clip size appropriate to the vessel diameter they are working with, since undersized or oversized clips can compromise hemostasis. Clip appliers are used extensively across general, vascular, gynecologic and laparoscopic surgery whenever rapid, secure vessel occlusion is preferred over manual tying, particularly for smaller structures encountered during dissection.

Surgeons and surgical assistants rely on a properly functioning applier mechanism for consistent clip deployment. As a reusable stainless steel instrument, it is cleaned, inspected for jaw and mechanism function and sterilized between surgical cases.
