Kelsey Fry Straight Awl 15cm – Aero-Pass Suture Anchor & Prime-View Precision Shield

Kelsey Fry Straight Awl 15cm for Precision Maxillofacial Wire Placement

This specialized 15cm surgical instrument is a cornerstone of the reconstructive kit, specifically engineered for the stable displacement of wires through direct soft tissue corridors. Functioning as a high-performance suture anchor, the Kelsey Fry Straight Awl  features a sharp, tapered tip with a distal eyelet for secure wire carrying. Adas Instruments ensures that each precision shield is balanced for center-point force transmission, allowing the surgeon to guide the instrument with linear accuracy. By utilizing this professional-grade tool, practitioners benefit from a reinforced shank that prevents bending during passage through dense fascia or periosteum.
