Sklar Econo Allis Tissue Forceps, Atraumatic Teeth
A disposable ring-handled tissue forceps used to grasp and hold fascia, bowel, and other tissue during general surgery, with several tooth pattern and length options.
The Econo Allis tissue forceps from Sklar are a disposable general surgery instrument used to grasp and hold tissue firmly during dissection, retraction, and repair. This listing covers a range of builds at six and seven and a half inches, with tooth patterns including four by five teeth, five by six teeth, and a double row of atraumatic teeth.
The toothed patterns give a strong, positive grip suited to fascia, muscle, and other resilient tissue, while the atraumatic tooth option is intended for use on more delicate structures such as bowel, where a secure hold is still needed but tissue damage must be minimised. Ring handles with a ratcheted box lock let the surgeon lock the forceps onto tissue and free both hands for other steps of the procedure.
As disposable instruments, they arrive with sharp, well-aligned teeth every time and are discarded after use rather than reprocessed. Packed twelve to a box, they are stocked by general and abdominal surgery departments that use Allis forceps routinely across a range of procedure types.
