Product overview
Allis tissue forceps: teeth, length and typical uses.
Allis forceps have several rows of fine, interlocking teeth set in the jaws, so they grip tissue firmly without a single sharp point doing the work. A ratchet keeps them closed. In veterinary surgery they hold fascia, skin edges and thicker soft tissue while the surgeon cuts or sutures.
The number of teeth, jaw length and overall length differ between catalogues, so we work from your reference piece or drawing. For more delicate, tubular structures such as intestine, the blunt, fenestrated Babcock forceps are often chosen instead.
Interlocking teethSeveral fine teeth in each jaw.
Ratchet lockMaintains the hold.
Length optionsMatched to the tissue and patient.
Stainless steelReusable construction.
