Self-Centering Bone Holding Forceps

Self-centering bone holding forceps are orthopedic instruments used to grip and stabilize bone fragments symmetrically during fracture reduction and fixation, with a screw-lock mechanism that applies even pressure from both jaws simultaneously.

Design & Function
The self-centering mechanism means both jaws close toward the bone shaft at the same rate, keeping the fragment centered along the instrument’s axis rather than being pushed to one side — critical for accurate alignment before plating or nailing. The serrated jaw grips bone securely while the opposing curved jaw seats against the shaft, and the sliding screw lock lets the surgeon set and hold compression without maintaining manual grip.

 FAQs

Q: What is a self-centering bone holding forceps used for? A: It’s used in orthopedic surgery to grip and hold bone fragments in place symmetrically during reduction, so the surgeon can align and stabilize the bone before applying plates, screws, or nails.

Q: How is a self-centering forceps different from a standard bone holding forceps? A: A standard forceps can shift a fragment off-center as it closes. A self-centering design closes both jaws at an equal rate, keeping the bone fragment aligned on the instrument’s central axis throughout closure.

Q: Does VS Surgico offer this instrument for private label / OEM? A: Yes, VS Surgico manufactures self-centering bone holding forceps for OEM and private label under CE MDR 2017/745 and ISO 13485:2016 certification, with custom branding and packaging available for distributor partners.
