Derf Needle Holder Straight 12.0 cm (4.7) TC (Gold Handle)

Controlled Needle Handling Across Surgical Workflows

The Derf needle holder is a 4 3/4-inch straight instrument designed to grasp and guide needles during suturing. Its ring handle supports familiar instrument control, while the TC dusted jaws provide a purpose-built gripping surface for needle handling. The titanium construction keeps the instrument aligned with workflows that value a lightweight, responsive hand feel. The straight profile offers a direct working orientation for visibility and access in cardiovascular, general surgery, and plastic surgery settings. Its compact length is suited to tasks requiring controlled manipulation without the added reach of a longer needle holder.

Use Cases

• Grasping and guiding needles during suturing in cardiovascular procedures.
• Supporting routine needle-handling tasks in general surgery.
• Managing suturing steps in plastic surgery workflows where a straight instrument orientation is useful.
• Using the ring handle for controlled opening, closing, and repositioning during needle placement.
