Sklar Econo Baumgartner Needle Holder, Serrated
A disposable spring-handled needle holder with serrated jaws, used to grip suture needles securely during fine surgical and delicate suturing procedures. Supplied disposable for single use and packed 12 to a unit for routine clinic and hospital stock.
The Econo Baumgartner needle holder from Sklar is a disposable instrument built for fine suturing work where a compact, spring-action design offers better control than a standard ring-handled holder. Instead of finger rings, the handle uses a spring mechanism that the surgeon squeezes to lock the jaws onto the needle, allowing quicker repositioning and a lighter, more precise grip during repetitive suturing.
The jaws carry a serrated pattern that holds the needle securely against rotation as it passes through tissue. At around five and a quarter inches, the holder suits close, detailed work in plastic surgery, ophthalmology, and other fine procedures where needle control matters more than reach. Supplied disposable, each holder arrives with sharp, properly aligned jaw serrations and is discarded after the case, avoiding the gradual loss of grip that reusable needle holders can develop after repeated sterilisation cycles.
This makes it a practical choice for departments that want consistent needle control without maintaining a reusable inventory. Packed twelve to a box, it suits routine stocking for surgical and outpatient suturing needs.
