Description
The Barraquer Micro Needle Holder 180mm, TC, STR is a high-precision surgical instrument designed for holding and manipulating fine surgical needles during delicate microsurgical procedures. Commonly used in ophthalmic, vascular, neurosurgery, plastic, and reconstructive surgeries, this instrument offers surgeons the precision, control, and durability required for suturing in highly sensitive areas.
Featuring a straight (STR) jaw design, it enables accurate alignment and needle guidance in narrow or straight-line anatomical regions. The Tungsten Carbide (TC) inserts in the jaws significantly enhance grip strength and longevity, providing exceptional control over the needle while preventing slippage, even during the most meticulous suturing.
At 180mm in length, this needle holder offers extended reach and improved maneuverability, especially in deeper or more confined surgical fields. Its micro profile is ideal for handling ultra-fine needles and sutures (typically 6-0 and smaller), minimizing tissue trauma and enhancing surgical outcomes.
The instrument features a spring-handle mechanism, allowing precise, fatigue-free operation. This design ensures quick opening and closing without the need for locking, offering rapid response and maximum tactile feedback during microsurgery.
Constructed from high-grade surgical stainless steel, the Barraquer Micro Needle Holder is corrosion-resistant, autoclavable, and built to withstand repeated sterilization without compromising its structural integrity or performance.
