Product Overview
The Allis Tissue Forcep is the industry standard for grasping fascia, tendons, and tissue that is destined for resection. Its unique design features interlocking, sharp teeth at the tips that provide a “locking” grip. While not intended for delicate skin or hollow viscera (due to its aggressive nature), it is the primary choice for stabilizing the vaginal wall during GYN procedures or lifting the fascia during an abdominal wall closure.
Key Features
-
Interlocking “Beast-Teeth”: Features a distinctive tooth configuration (available in 3×4, 4×5, or 5×6 patterns) that intermeshes perfectly to provide a secure, high-tension grip.
-
Box-Joint Structural Integrity: Manufactured with a reinforced box joint that prevents the jaws from “scissoring” or twisting under the high torque of retraction.
-
Multi-Position Ratchet Lock: Equipped with a precision ratchet mechanism that allows the surgeon to lock the instrument at various levels of tension, providing a reliable “set-and-forget” hold.
-
Ergonomic Finger Rings: The handles are balanced and weighted for a comfortable fit, allowing for smooth one-handed locking and unlocking.
-
Serrated Atraumatic Shanks: The shanks are designed to be resilient, providing enough flex to prevent tissue tearing while maintaining enough rigidity for heavy-duty lifting.
