POTTS-SMITH 21 cm forceps – 1x2 jaws: a secure and precise grip for delicate tissue surgery
The POTTS-SMITH 21 cm forceps from Frimed are an essential instrument for surgeons working on fine, fragile or highly vascularised tissue. Renowned for their extreme fineness and secure grip, they are particularly recommended for surgical procedures requiring great delicacy, such as cardiovascular, plastic or thoracic surgery. This model stands out for its long, straight shape, ideal for accessing deep areas, and its 1x2 serrated jaws, which provide a firm grip while minimising the risk of tissue trauma.
The 1x2 teeth ensure a clean hold on tissue, preventing accidental slippage or clumsy movements. This type of jaw is specifically designed to hold tissue without crushing it, making this forceps particularly suitable for fine dissection or manipulation of structures such as vessels, nerves or skin flaps. The serrated surface on the branches enhances grip, even in wet conditions or under surgical tension.
Its length of 21 cm offers an optimal compromise between accessibility and control. This size allows for deep access while maintaining good visibility and ease of movement, particularly under a microscope or during deep chest or abdominal surgery. The stainless steel used in its manufacture guarantees high resistance to repeated sterilisation and oxidation, while maintaining a rigid structure that is essential for surgical precision.
These forceps combine ergonomics, precision and efficiency in a format designed for delicate procedures. They are intended for demanding practitioners looking for a reliable, stable instrument suitable for high-precision tissue manipulation.
