Surgical Needle Holder 19.1 cm (7.5) TC (Gold Handle)

Controlled Needle Handling with Extended Reach

The 7 1/2" W.M. Lemmon Cardiac Needle Holder TC long is a surgical instrument designed to grasp and control needles during suturing. Its extended 7.5" length supports access in deeper or more confined operative areas, helping maintain a practical working distance while positioning the needle. The tungsten carbide construction is suited to the gripping surfaces of a needle holder, providing a durable contact interface for repeated handling within established facility workflows. Intended for general surgery applications and identified for cardiac use, this long pattern supports precise instrument manipulation where reach and secure needle control are important.

Use Cases

• Grasp and guide needles during suturing in general surgery procedures.
• Support needle control when working in deeper or less accessible operative areas.
• Use the long pattern for cardiac suturing tasks identified by the instrument name.
• Maintain a stable hold on the needle during repositioning and passage through the operative field.
