Adson-Brown Tissue Forcep 12 cm Teeth 7x7

The Adson-Brown Tissue Forceps, 12 cm with 7x7 teeth, differs from the standard Adson in the arrangement of its tips. In place of one or two interlocking teeth, the Brown pattern carries seven small teeth in a row on each jaw, positioned to grasp from the side. The purpose of this arrangement is to distribute the holding pressure across a wider area of tissue. A single tooth concentrates force at one point, which is effective on skin but may tear a delicate layer.

Seven teeth acting together hold the same tissue securely while placing less stress on any one part of it. The veterinary surgical instrument is therefore used where tissue must be held firmly but handled carefully, including skin flaps, subcutaneous layers and fine soft tissue during dissection. The 7x7 arrangement is the finer of the two Brown patterns offered and is generally preferred for the most delicate work.

• Seven small side grasping teeth per jaw in place of a single interlocking tooth
• Distributes holding pressure across a wider area of tissue
• Holds securely while placing less stress on any one point
• Premium quality stainless steel
• Fully autoclavable & reusable 
• Wide flat ribbed handle for controlled pen grip

Why do Adson-Brown forceps have so many teeth?

Multiple small teeth spread the holding pressure across the tissue, which reduces the risk of tearing compared with a single tooth.

Should 7x7 or 9x9 be selected?

The 7x7 pattern is finer and preferred for delicate work. The 9x9 pattern spreads pressure further and holds more securely on tougher tissue.
