Product Description

The Castroviejo Needle Holder Without Lock with Tungsten Carbide Jaws from Micro Technologies is a premium microsurgical instrument designed for high-precision suturing in delicate procedures. It combines the flexibility of a non-locking mechanism with the durability and grip strength of tungsten carbide (TC) inserts.

Constructed from high-quality stainless steel, this instrument offers excellent corrosion resistance and long-lasting performance. The tungsten carbide jaws provide a superior grip on fine needles, reducing slippage and enhancing accuracy during intricate surgical tasks. The absence of a locking mechanism allows smooth, uninterrupted control, making it ideal for continuous and precise suturing.

Available in both straight and curved designs and sizes ranging from 15 cm to 20 cm, it offers versatility for different surgical approaches and access requirements. The ergonomic spring-handle design ensures ease of use and minimizes hand fatigue during prolonged procedures.

Widely used in hospitals, ophthalmic clinics, and research laboratories, this instrument supports both clinical and educational applications. Micro Technologies ensures strict quality standards, delivering reliable and high-performance surgical tools.
