The Baumgartner Wire Twisting Pliers 20cm from Adas Instruments is the professional standard for procedures requiring the manipulation of heavy-gauge surgical wires. Crafted from premium medical grade stainless steel, these pliers are built to withstand the extreme torsional forces necessary for securing sternal closures or large-bone cerclage without bending or slipping.
