Description
Sklar Econo Sterile Adson Tissue Forceps is a forceps from Sklar Instruments, 4-3/4 in long, straight, 1x2 teeth pattern. It is supplied sterile and ready to use, so procedure setups stay on schedule without a reprocessing step. Sklar lists it for general surgery and ob/gyn (obstetrics & gynecology) work.
- Measured Profile – 4-3/4 in overall length (121 mm) gives the adson tissue forceps its working reach.
- Tooth Pattern – A 1x2 teeth pattern grips tissue with control during the procedure.
- Handle Design – A thumb handle supports a controlled, repeatable grip.
- Sterile Supply – Ships sterile, which removes the processing step before use.
- Department Packaging – Supplied 25 per case, so replenishment of the adson tissue forceps matches the department's own usage rate.
Adson Tissue Forceps: Design and Supply
The adson tissue forceps sits in Sklar's thumb forceps line, in the Econo Sterile Floor Grade range. This instrument is for holding and manipulating delicate tissues. These forceps have a wide, flat thumb grasp area that is commonly serrated. It is made of stainless steel. Because it is sterile and disposable, it goes from the package to the field and is discarded after the case, which keeps turnover simple.
