Sklar Merit Dressing Forceps, Straight Serrated
Straight serrated dressing forceps used to handle dressings, swabs and small tissue during wound care and general surgical procedures.
The Sklar Merit Dressing Forceps is a general purpose grasping instrument used to handle gauze, dressings, swabs and small pieces of tissue without direct hand contact during wound care and surgical procedures. The tip is straight and serrated, giving a secure hold on soft material such as packing gauze while still allowing precise placement in confined areas of a wound or surgical field.
This listing comes in multiple sizes, ranging from 4-1/2 inches up to 12 inches, so staff can select a length matched to the depth of the wound or the reach needed for a particular task, from superficial dressing changes to deeper packing procedures. Dressing forceps of this pattern are one of the most frequently used instruments across nursing, wound care, minor surgery and general theatre settings, valued for their simple, reliable design.
Constructed from surgical grade stainless steel, they are built to withstand repeated autoclave sterilisation across their working life. They are a routine stock item in dressing trolleys, minor procedure trays and general surgical instrument sets in hospitals and clinics.
