Rat Tooth forcep 6(AI)
In stock
Veterinarians use 6-inch rat tooth forceps to manipulate heavy, robust tissues like fascia, muscle sheaths, and skin during wound closure. Additionally, in endoscopic or oral procedures, they act as reliable foreign body retrieval instruments to safely secure and extract ingested items (e.g., coins, pins, or stents) from the gastrointestinal tract without tearing surrounding mucosal tissue.

Specs & features.
The instrument features a classic spring-tension shank. At the tip of the jaws, it has interlocking interdigitating teeth (typically a 1x2 or 2x3 tooth configuration). This allows the user to hold tissues firmly with controlled, localized pressure and zero slippage, preventing the crushing damage associated with smooth or serrated dressing forceps.
No specifications have been listed.
- Interlocking Teeth (1:2 Configuration): Large interdigitated teeth provide strong grasping power for dense or fibrous tissue.
- 6-Inch Length: Provides the ideal reach for small-animal surgery and deeper tissue retraction or oral/esophageal access.
- High-Grade Stainless Steel: Ensures rust resistance, longevity, and full autoclave capability for strict veterinary hygiene standards.
