Kelly Sponge Forceps Serrated Curved Without Ratchet 31.7cm

Controlled Sponge Handling with Curved, Serrated Jaws

The Kelly Sponge Forceps Serrated Curved Without Ratchet 31.7cm is a surgical forceps intended for grasping, positioning, and handling sponges or gauze during procedural work. Its curved profile supports access and visibility around the working field, while the serrated jaw pattern helps maintain contact with the material being handled. At 31.7cm overall length, it provides an extended reach for tasks requiring distance from the immediate hand position. The absence of a ratchet preserves direct manual control, allowing the user to apply and release pressure as needed during routine instrument handling.

Use Cases

• Grasp and position surgical sponges or gauze during procedural work.
• Use the curved profile to approach materials around the working field while maintaining a clear line of sight.
• Apply the serrated jaws when a textured gripping surface is useful for controlled sponge handling.
• Use the 31.7cm length for tasks requiring extended reach from the hand position.
• Open and release the forceps manually when direct, non-ratcheted control is preferred.

Specifications
