Adson Forceps – Ideal for Tissue Manipulation in plastic surgery

Adson Forceps for Precision Surgical Tissue Handling

The Adson Forceps is a primary instrument in any surgical toolkit, particularly valued for its ability to manipulate delicate tissues with minimal trauma. Whether you are performing a simple suture or a complex reconstruction, these surgical pickups offer the tactile feedback necessary for high-stakes procedures. At Adas Instruments, we manufacture these tools to meet rigorous clinical benchmarks. We ship USA, Europe & worldwide via DHL, FedEx, and UPS to ensure your facility is always equipped with medical-grade instruments.

For more intensive procedures requiring a long-lasting grip, many surgeons choose our tungsten carbide forceps. These are often used as a primary fixation forceps when broader tissue contact is required, ensuring that every maneuver is performed with absolute stability and control as part of your reconstructive surgery tools.

Crafted from high-quality steel, our Adson models feature a wide thumb grasp area that prevents slipping even during lengthy operations. The fine, tapered tips allow for access to deep or narrow surgical fields, making them a staple in plastic and reconstructive surgery.

To ensure the longevity of your Adson instruments, always follow standardized ultrasonic cleaning protocols. Avoid using abrasive pads that can scratch the finish, and ensure the tool is thoroughly dried before autoclaving. Regular inspection of the teeth or serrations is recommended to maintain peak performance.
