Allis Tissue Forceps – 9.5 Inch, 5x6 Teeth – Stainless Steel Grasping Instrument
The 9.5 inch Allis is the long pattern picked for deeper abdominal or pelvic fields where a 6 or 7.25 inch jaw would leave the surgeon's hand crowding the incision.
Jaw geometry and the 5x6 tooth pattern match the 7.25 inch version exactly, so a tray stocking both sizes keeps the same bite and grip characteristics regardless of which length is in hand. The added reach is the only variable, which is exactly the point when a deep field is the only thing standing between the surgeon and a secure hold.

FAQs
Q: When is the 9.5 inch Allis needed instead of the 7.25 inch?
A: When the surgical field is deep enough that a shorter forceps would crowd the surgeon's hand against the wound edge, such as in deeper abdominal or pelvic procedures.
Q: Do you supply matched sets across all three Allis sizes?
A: Yes, the 6, 7.25 and 9.5 inch patterns can be ordered together as a matched tray set.
