Our McIndoe Dressing Forceps have fine, narrow tips for grasping delicate tissues and for accessing deeper within an incision. Originally designed for plastic surgery, they are also popular for microdissection, and ophthalmology. The stabilizing pin and grooved handle give you a secure grip for better control of the tweezers. They are 15.5 cm (6") long with straight, serrated tips. They come as standard or with tungsten carbide inserts. Tungsten carbide (TC) is extremely hard and durable, giving you a long-lasting pair of forceps. With a high coefficient of friction, TC forceps offer enhanced gripping ability for a secure hold with minimal friction against tissues. The reduced friction means less tissue damage as a result of handling. Tungsten carbide is also resistant to corrosion. The McIndoe Dressing Forceps are manufactured with surgical grade stainless steel or premium German steel, both of which are autoclavable. WPI recommends properly cleaning all your surgical instruments promptly after use. This improves the useable lifespan of your surgical tools.
