Gross-Maier Dressing Forceps — Straight & Curved, With or Without Ratchet (20 cm / 8″)
Features and Description:
The Gross-Maier Dressing Forceps is a versatile surgical instrument designed for secure handling of dressings, gauze, swabs, and delicate materials during wound care and operative procedures. Available in both straight (STR) and curved (CVD) profiles, as well as with or without a ratchet locking mechanism, this instrument offers flexibility to suit different surgical preferences and clinical requirements.
Manufactured from premium surgical-grade stainless steel, the forceps provide excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and long service life under repeated sterilization cycles. The precisely aligned jaws ensure a firm yet atraumatic grip on dressings and tissues, reducing the risk of slippage or material damage.
The ratchet version allows hands-free clamping with consistent pressure, ideal for prolonged procedures, while the non-ratchet version provides immediate release and greater tactile control. The curved profile enhances access to deeper or confined areas, whereas the straight profile offers direct visibility and precision in open fields.
