Nova jaw hook 9" heavy 1 sharp prong 19.0mm diameter round handle

Controlled Reach and Secure Handling for General Surgical Retraction

The Nova jaw hook is a 9-inch general surgery hook designed for controlled tissue retraction and positioning during hands-on operative work. Its heavy construction and single sharp prong provide a focused point of engagement, while the round handle supports familiar manual handling and directional control. The 19.0 mm diameter adds a substantial grip profile for clinicians who prefer a more robust instrument feel. With extended reach for working access and a defined sharp tip for targeted contact, this hook supports practical exposure and tissue-handling tasks where deliberate placement and steady manipulation are important.

Use Cases

• Use for focused tissue retraction when a single sharp prong is appropriate for the task.
• Support controlled positioning and manipulation of tissue during general surgical procedures.
• Use the 9-inch length to provide working reach around the operative field.
• Handle through the round grip profile when applying deliberate directional control.
• Use the heavy weight class where a substantial instrument feel is preferred during manual retraction.
