Dissecting Forceps
Dissecting Forceps are precision hand tools designed for grasping, holding, and manipulating tissues or small objects during dissection or surgical procedures. Typically made from high-quality stainless steel or surgical-grade metal, these forceps offer durability, corrosion resistance, and ease of sterilization. They come in various shapes and sizes, including straight or curved tips, serrated or smooth jaws, to suit different dissection needs in medical, veterinary, biological research, and educational settings. Their ergonomic design allows fine control and minimizes tissue damage during delicate operations.
