Sklar Crile-Wood / DeBakey Needle Holder
The Sklar Crile-Wood needle holder features narrow, serrated jaws for controlled needle placement, used by surgeons and scrub staff during suturing in a range of procedures.
The Sklar Crile-Wood needle holder is a surgical instrument used to grip and guide suture needles while closing wounds and tissue layers. Its narrow jaws are serrated for a secure hold on the needle, reducing the chance of slippage during delicate suturing, and the box lock ratchet keeps the jaws closed until the surgeon releases them.
At 6 inches long, it sits comfortably in the hand for extended use and suits a wide range of general, plastic and reconstructive procedures where fine control over needle angle matters. Needle holders of this style are standard equipment in operating theatres, minor procedure rooms and outpatient clinics, used by surgeons, assistants and scrub nurses alike.
Supplied as a reusable stainless steel instrument, it is designed to be cleaned, sterilised and reused across many procedures, making it a practical stock item for hospitals, clinics and instrument tray manufacturers across the region.
