Sklar TC Oehler Tissue Forceps, Straight
A straight 5-1/2 inch tungsten carbide tissue forceps with 1x2 teeth, used to grasp tissue securely during general surgical procedures.
The Sklar TC Oehler Tissue Forceps is a straight, tungsten carbide tissue forceps finished with a 1x2 tooth pattern for a secure, controlled grip on tissue. At five and a half inches, it is compact enough for close surgical work while still offering more bite than a plain dressing forceps thanks to its tooth pattern.
The tungsten carbide inserts keep the fine teeth sharper across repeated use and sterilization cycles compared with an all stainless steel jaw. This listing spans four configurations of the Oehler pattern, giving surgeons options across slightly different lengths or tip variations for different procedure types.
Tissue forceps of this kind are used across general and plastic surgery wherever a compact, secure grip on tissue is needed during dissection or suturing. Surgeons and their assisting teams treat this as a versatile addition to a general surgery tray. As a reusable instrument with tungsten carbide inserts, it is cleaned, inspected and steam sterilized between cases.
