Needle Needle Holder Straight 23.0 cm (9") TC (Gold Handle)

Controlled Needle Handling for Cardiovascular and General Surgery

This 9 1/8-inch heavy straight needle holder is designed to securely grasp and guide surgical needles during suturing. Its straight profile supports a direct working approach, while the ring handle and ratchet provide a familiar grip with controlled closure during repetitive needle-handling tasks. Tungsten carbide jaws add a durable gripping surface for managing needles through cardiovascular and general surgical workflows. The extended length can help maintain working distance in the operative field while supporting deliberate placement and retrieval. Its substantial construction is suited to tasks requiring confident instrument control without changing the established needle-holder technique.

Use Cases

• Holding and guiding needles during cardiovascular suturing and vessel repair workflows.
• Managing needles during general surgical closure and tissue approximation tasks.
• Supporting direct, straight-line needle placement where the operative approach benefits from a 9 1/8-inch instrument.
• Using the ratchet handle to maintain a controlled grip while passing, positioning, or retrieving a needle.
• Handling needles in procedures that call for a heavy needle holder with tungsten carbide gripping surfaces.
