Fletcher Van Doren Uterine Polyp Sponge Holding Forceps

Fletcher Van Doren Uterine Polyp Sponge Holding Forceps – 9-1/2″ (24.1cm)

Pak Line Industries presents the Fletcher Van Doren Uterine Polyp Sponge Holding Forceps (9-1/2″ / 24.1cm), an essential dual-purpose gynecological surgical instrument engineered for deep intrauterine tissue extraction, swab holding, and intrauterine cavity packing. Featuring curved, contoured shanks, oval fenestrated tips with inner cross-serrations, and a multi-position ratchet lock, this instrument allows gynecologists to securely grasp pedunculated polyps, retrieve retained placental products, and pack surgical gauze into the deep vaginal vault or uterine cavity without obscuring direct operative visibility.

Manufactured in our ISO 13485:2016 certified production facility in Sialkot, every pair of Fletcher Van Doren forceps is hot-drop forged from premium medical-grade AISI 420 Surgical Stainless Steel and vacuum heat-treated to HRC 50–54 to guarantee lasting mechanical strength, tip resilience, and high corrosion resistance. The distinctive S-curved shank geometry conforms naturally to the pelvic axis, bypassing the anterior lip of the cervix and speculum frames to access all uterine quadrants safely. Built with an anti-glare satin matte finish, this instrument is fully reusable, rustproof, and 100% steam autoclavable, meeting the rigorous demands of hospital surgical suites, outpatient gynecology clinics, and global medical supply distributors.

Key Features & Surgical Performance Advantages

• Oval Fenestrated Jaws: Open-window design encapsulates bulky soft tissue, polyps, or folded surgical gauze sponges securely while minimizing specimen crush trauma.

• Transverse Inner Serrations: Precision-machined horizontal grooves along the inner jaws provide a firm, slip-resistant grip on mucosal growths, tissue pedicles, or wet cotton swabs.

• Contoured S-Curved Shanks: Anatomical curvature allows smooth passage through the cervical canal and facilitates access into the uterine fundus and cornua without dragging against vaginal walls.

• Extended 9-1/2″ (24.1cm) Working Length: Provides optimal reach into deep pelvic spaces, keeping the clinician’s hand outside the line of sight to preserve direct visualization.

• Multi-Position Ratchet Lock: Precision finger-ring ratchet provides graduated, dependable locking force for sustained sponge fixation or controlled polyp traction.

• Reinforced Box-Lock Hinge: Heavy-duty joint assembly maintains exact tip alignment and prevents scissor splay or twisting under lateral load.

• Medical-Grade AISI 420 Stainless Steel: Martensitic alloy delivers high tensile strength and prevents shaft flex, tip distortion, or corrosion under repeated sterilization.

• 100% Steam Autoclavable & Reusable: Resists repeated hospital autoclaving cycles (134°C / 273°F) and enzymatic detergents without joint stiffening or mechanical wear.

• OEM & Custom Branding: Available with custom laser marking, institutional coding, CE regulatory etching, and bulk export packaging.
