Backhaus Towel Forceps

Product Overview

The Backhaus Towel Forceps are standard perforating clamps designed to secure sterile surgical drapes, towels, and auxiliary lines around the operative site. Featuring sharp, inward-curving penetrating tips and finger-ring handles with a locking ratchet, they anchor tightly into fabric to maintain a stable, uncompromised sterile field.

Key Features

• Penetrating Sharp Tips: Features pointed, inward-curving tips that pierce and lock securely into surgical drapes to prevent shifting during procedures.

• Ratchet Locking Mechanism: Adjustable finger-ring ratchet maintains steady, hands-free clamping pressure.

• Versatile Length Options: Available in compact and standard sizes ranging from 3-1/2 inches to 5-1/4 inches (9cm to 13.3cm).

• Surgical-Grade Construction: Forged from autoclavable stainless steel (or lightweight titanium variants) for high corrosion resistance and long-term durability.

Ideal Applications

• Securing and anchoring sterile surgical drapes and cloth coverings to maintain field isolation

• Fastening suction tubing, electrocautery cords, or accessory lines to the drape boundary

• Occasional grasping or temporary holding tasks across general, orthopedic, and specialty surgeries
