Crile Wood Needle Holder 15.0 cm (6")

Controlled Needle Handling for General Surgery

The Crile Wood T.C. Needle Holder 15cm is a surgical instrument used to grasp, guide, and control needles during suturing in general surgery. Its 15cm format provides a practical balance between hand control and working reach, supporting accurate needle positioning through routine closure tasks. As part of the needle holder family, it is suited to workflows that require stable instrument handling while the operator advances and retrieves suture needles. The focused length can help maintain a clear working position without adding unnecessary instrument reach, making it a useful choice for standard open surgical technique and general-purpose suturing applications.
