The 4 3/4-inch Adson Brown Side Grasping Forceps combine tungsten carbide inserts with a 7x7 teeth configuration for precision in side-tissue manipulation. The ergonomic thumb grasp area allows for secure and comfortable handling, while the tungsten carbide tips provide exceptional sharpness and longevity. Light in weight and made from superior-grade stainless steel, they have been gold-plated to facilitate easy identification; therefore, they are excellent forceps for frequent autoclaving. They are superb forceps for suturing or approximating tissue and are especially used for fine manipulation of tissues in plastic, ophthalmic, and reconstructive procedures.
