Bone reduction forceps 5 1/2" curved jaws with 0.047" (1.2mm) K-wire guide ring handle with ratchet

Precision Alignment and Stabilization for Complex Reductions

Achieving accurate anatomical alignment during fracture repair requires instruments that combine familiar grip with guided precision. These 5 1/2-inch bone reduction forceps feature curved jaws designed to navigate around soft tissue and contour to specific bone structures, facilitating clear visualization of the reduction site. The integrated handle includes a 0.047-inch (1.2mm) K-wire guide ring, allowing surgeons to maintain fragment position while simultaneously directing wire placement for temporary fixation. A reliable ratchet mechanism supports consistent holding pressure without continuous manual effort, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged procedures. This dual-function design streamlines the workflow in both general surgery and orthopedic settings by merging reduction and guidance into a single, efficient instrument.

Use Cases

• Maintaining reduction of bone fragments while inserting 1.2mm K-wires for temporary stabilization
• Navigating curved jaws around soft tissue structures to improve visibility during open reduction
• Securing fracture alignment in orthopedic trauma procedures requiring precise wire guidance
• Assisting in complex reconstructive tasks where simultaneous holding and drilling access is critical

Specifications

Care & Handling

• Inspect jaws and ratchet mechanism for wear or damage before each use to supports proper function
• Clean thoroughly according to facility protocols, paying attention to the guide ring and hinge areas
• Store in a protected environment to prevent deformation of the curved jaws or guide ring

General use; follow facility protocols.
