The 8¾″ Rochester-Ochsner Hemostatic Forceps, Straight, 1×2 Teeth is a versatile and widely used surgical instrument in general surgery, gynecology, trauma procedures, abdominal surgery, and veterinary applications. It is designed to provide dependable performance in tissue handling, vessel control, and hemostasis across a variety of clinical settings.

A key feature of this instrument is its 1×2 interlocking teeth, located at the tip of the jaws. These teeth lock securely when the forceps is closed, providing a firm grip on fascia, muscle tissue, connective tissue, and vascular structures. This design significantly reduces slippage and ensures stable control during clamping, dissection, and tissue manipulation.

The straight jaw configuration allows direct access to surgical sites and ensures precise alignment with targeted tissues. This makes it especially useful in open surgical procedures where accuracy and linear control are essential. The straight design also improves visibility and simplifies instrument handling in standard operative fields.

With a length of 8¾ inches, this forceps offers an excellent balance between reach and precision. It is long enough for moderately deep surgical areas while still providing excellent control for fine and delicate procedures, making it a highly versatile instrument.

The jaws are equipped with transverse serrations that enhance grip strength alongside the interlocking teeth. This dual-grip system ensures secure tissue retention and minimizes the need for repositioning during surgery, improving efficiency and workflow.

Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the Rochester-Ochsner Hemostatic Forceps Straight 8¾ Inch 1×2 Teeth delivers excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability. It maintains precise alignment and smooth functionality even after repeated sterilization cycles.

The instrument features a smooth ratchet locking mechanism that allows controlled clamping pressure with multiple adjustable positions. This ensures secure tissue fixation while reducing hand fatigue during prolonged surgical procedures.

Ergonomic finger-ring handles provide comfort, stability, and precise control. The polished finish enhances corrosion resistance and allows easy cleaning and sterilization, making it suitable for repeated clinical use.

Fully autoclavable and reusable, this forceps meets modern surgical standards and provides a cost-effective solution for healthcare facilities.

Whether used for vessel clamping, fascia handling, tissue grasping, or hemostasis, the 8¾″ Rochester-Ochsner Hemostatic Forceps, Straight, 1×2 Teeth delivers dependable performance and surgical precision.
