Sklar Econo Ferris Smith Tissue Forceps
A disposable tissue forceps with a 1x2 tooth pattern, used to grasp and hold tissue securely during general surgical procedures. Supplied disposable for single use and packed 12 to a unit for routine clinic and hospital stock.
The Econo Ferris Smith tissue forceps from Sklar are a disposable general surgical instrument used to grip and manipulate tissue during dissection and wound closure. The tips carry a 1x2 tooth pattern, where a single tooth on one jaw interlocks with two on the opposing jaw, giving a secure, non-slip hold on fascia, skin, or muscle without the wider crushing surface of a plain, toothless forceps.
At seven inches, the instrument offers enough length and leverage for general surgical use across a range of procedure types where a moderate amount of reach is needed. Supplied disposable, the forceps are used for a single case and discarded, keeping the tooth alignment precise for every procedure rather than allowing it to drift out of true after repeated sterilisation cycles, which can happen with reusable tissue forceps over time.
General surgery and outpatient procedure settings commonly keep this instrument stocked as a standard tissue-handling forceps alongside other similar patterns. Packed twelve to a box, it suits routine, steady restocking for departments with regular surgical case volume.
