14.5cm Tungsten Carbide Olsen-Hegar Needle Holder Scissors Combination – Straight
The 14.5cm Tungsten Carbide Olsen-Hegar Needle Holder Scissors Combination is a dual-purpose surgical instrument that combines a needle holder and suture scissors in one compact design.
The instrument features straight serrated jaws for secure needle handling and an integrated scissors mechanism for cutting sutures without changing instruments. The Tungsten Carbide (TC) insert provides enhanced durability and helps maintain the working edge over repeated use.
The ring-handle design with locking mechanism allows controlled handling during suturing procedures. Its 14.5cm (5¾ inch) length provides a useful balance between precision and maneuverability.
This configuration is specifically supported by Teleflex/Pilling documentation, which lists the 14.5cm version as TC with an 11 × 3.2mm jaw.
