The heavy set teeth ensure the firm grasp of tissue or suturing equipment without slippage, while the slightly extended length aids in accessing difficult areas. The forceps are available with a tying platform, designed to grasp both the tissue and suturing equipment without changing instruments. Three different tooth sizes are available depending on surgical preference. Forceps manufactured with a lightweight, titanium alloy body offer advantages for procedures that require delicate precision.

Titanium forceps are almost half the weight of stainless steel, offering a more tactile feel with minimal fatigue. Finally, blue-colored tint reduces glare and the non-magnetic material resists static buildup.
