Sheets-McPherson tying forceps 3 1/4" angled 45º shafts with 10.5mm tying platforms, criss-cross serrated tip titanium

Angled Titanium Forceps for Controlled Suture Handling

Sheets-McPherson tying forceps are precision forceps designed to grasp and manage suture during tying and related handling tasks. Their 3 1/4-inch length and 45º angled shafts provide a practical approach for work where instrument orientation and access matter. The 10.5mm tying platforms offer a defined working surface, while the criss-cross serrated tip supports a secure hold during controlled manipulation. Constructed from titanium, these forceps are suited to organized instrument workflows across General Surgery and Ophthalmic settings, helping clinicians maintain a deliberate grip while positioning, guiding, or tying suture.

Use Cases

• Grasping and positioning suture during tying tasks in General Surgery.
• Managing suture with an angled approach when direct access is limited by instrument orientation or the surrounding field.
• Supporting controlled tying and fine handling tasks in Ophthalmic workflows.
• Using the 10.5mm tying platforms to maintain contact with suture during deliberate manipulation.
• Handling suture with the criss-cross serrated tip when a defined gripping surface is required.

Specifications

Care & Reprocessing

• Clean and reprocess the forceps according to facility protocols and the applicable manufacturer instructions for use.
• Inspect the serrated tip, tying platforms, and angled shafts for residue, damage, or changes that could affect handling before use.
• Handle the criss-cross serrated tip carefully during cleaning, transport, and setup to preserve its defined gripping surfaces.
• Store the forceps in a manner that protects the tip and prevents contact damage from other instruments.

General use; follow facility protocols.
