Product Description

Needle Nose Locking Pliers 30 cm – Stainless Steel Orthopedic Surgical Instrument

The Needle Nose Locking Pliers 30 cm by Stellmacher Instruments Inc. are precision-engineered orthopedic gripping instruments designed for secure holding, controlled manipulation, and positioning of suitable surgical components. Featuring elongated serrated jaws, an adjustable locking mechanism, and durable stainless steel construction, these pliers provide a firm mechanical grip for professional orthopedic and surgical instrument handling applications.

With an overall length of 30 cm (approximately 12 inches), these long-nose locking pliers offer extended reach and controlled access to deeper or restricted working areas. The adjustable screw mechanism allows the user to regulate jaw closure, while the integrated release lever provides controlled disengagement after gripping.

Key Features & Benefits

• Serrated Gripping Surfaces: Textured inner jaw surfaces help maintain a firm hold and reduce unintended movement of compatible objects during handling.
• Adjustable Locking Mechanism: A threaded adjustment screw allows the user to modify jaw closure for different gripping requirements.
• Integrated Release Lever: The mechanical release mechanism helps disengage the locking jaws after use.
• Durable Stainless Steel Construction: Designed for mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and repeated use with appropriate care and reprocessing.
• 30 cm Extended Length: Provides additional reach and leverage for professional orthopedic and technical gripping applications.
• Reusable Instrument Design: Intended for repeated professional use subject to proper inspection, maintenance, and validated reprocessing requirements.

Technical Specifications

Applications & Intended Usage

1. Orthopedic Surgical Instrument Handling

These needle nose locking pliers are designed to assist with secure gripping and manipulation of suitable orthopedic surgical components. The locking jaws help maintain a controlled grip where continuous manual pressure may be inconvenient.

2. Surgical Wire & Pin Handling

The serrated jaw design can support gripping and positioning of compatible surgical wires, pins, and similar components during appropriate orthopedic procedures. Use must remain within the manufacturer's approved intended purpose and instrument capacity.

3. Deep & Restricted Working Areas

The elongated needle nose design provides access to narrow or deeper working spaces where a standard short-jaw locking plier may be less convenient. The 30 cm length offers additional reach for controlled component handling.

4. Instrument & Component Positioning

The adjustable locking system supports temporary holding and positioning of suitable components during surgical instrument preparation and other professional handling tasks.

5. Laboratory & Technical Applications

The instrument may also be useful for appropriate technical gripping and mechanical holding tasks where a reusable stainless steel locking plier with extended jaws is required.

How to Use Needle Nose Locking Pliers

1. Inspect the serrated jaws, adjustment screw, handles, and locking mechanism before use.
2. Position the needle nose jaws around the appropriate component.
3. Adjust the threaded screw to establish suitable jaw closure.
4. Compress the handles carefully until the locking mechanism engages.
5. Maintain controlled positioning while the component is secured.
6. Operate the release lever to disengage the lock and open the jaws.

Avoid excessive force, overloading, or gripping delicate materials that may be damaged by the serrated surfaces. These pliers are not intended to cut surgical wire or bone.

Cleaning, Sterilization & Maintenance

After use, clean the instrument according to the manufacturer's validated instructions for use. Pay particular attention to the serrated jaw surfaces, pivot points, locking mechanism, and threaded adjustment screw where residue may accumulate.

Inspect the jaws for damage or misalignment and verify smooth engagement and release of the locking mechanism. Use instrument-compatible lubrication where specified by the manufacturer and avoid aggressive cleaning agents that may affect stainless steel surfaces.

For surgical applications, follow the approved cleaning, disinfection, inspection, packaging, and sterilization procedures before returning the instrument to service.
