Rochester-Ochsner Hemostatic Forceps, Straight, 1×2 Teeth, 7¼”, Titanium

Rochester-Ochsner Hemostatic Forceps, Straight, 1×2 Teeth, 7¼”, Titanium are specialized surgical instruments used for clamping blood vessels, controlling bleeding, and grasping dense tissues during procedures requiring a secure and dependable hold.

Designed for effective hemostasis and firm tissue manipulation, these forceps feature longitudinally serrated jaws with 1×2 interlocking teeth at the distal tip. This configuration enhances gripping performance and minimizes slippage when handling fascia, muscle, vascular pedicles, and other dense anatomical structures.

The straight jaw configuration provides direct access and unobstructed visibility, making the instrument particularly suitable for superficial tissue clamping and procedures requiring a linear approach.

With an overall length of 7¼ inches (18.4 cm), the forceps offer an optimal balance between reach and maneuverability, enabling precise control across a broad range of surgical applications.

An integrated ratchet locking mechanism allows the instrument to maintain consistent clamping pressure without continuous hand force, improving efficiency during surgical procedures.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade titanium, the Rochester-Ochsner Hemostatic Forceps are significantly lighter than conventional stainless steel instruments, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged procedures. Titanium construction also provides exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, and compatibility with advanced imaging environments.

The ergonomic finger ring handles ensure balanced control and comfortable operation, while the satin or matte low-glare finish minimizes reflections under surgical lighting.

Widely used in hospitals, surgical centers, and specialty clinics, these forceps are essential components of general surgery, gynecology, orthopedic surgery, cardiovascular surgery, and trauma instrument sets.

Fully reusable and autoclavable, the instrument is designed to withstand repeated cleaning and sterilization cycles while maintaining jaw alignment, locking performance, and structural integrity.

Common Clinical Applications Include:

• General Surgery
• Orthopedic Surgery
• Gynecological Procedures
• Cardiovascular Surgery
• Trauma Surgery
• Hemostasis
• Vessel Occlusion
• Dense Tissue Grasping
• Fascia Manipulation
• Surgical Field Management
