Flat Nose Plier With Serrations Only

Description

Flat Nose Plier With Serrations Only

These serrated flat nose pliers have serrations on the jaws and no cutter or groove. The serrations bite into wire and small hardware for a non-slip grip.

Serrations for grip

Smooth jaws can slip on wet wire. In contrast, serrations hold firmly even when wet. Therefore the pliers suit pulling and twisting.

Size

At 18 cm, they give solid leverage. Meanwhile, the jaws stay compact enough for most work. Moreover, it suits theater and ward use.

Who uses serrated flat nose pliers

Trauma surgeons twist and pull wire with them. Also, ward staff use them when removing wires. Also, hand surgeons use them on Kirschner wires.

A trade-off

Serrations can mark soft wire. However, for removal and twisting that rarely matters. For neat bends, a smooth jaw may suit better.

Simple design

With no cutter or groove, the jaws are easy to clean. Consequently, maintenance is quick. In addition, that helps busy departments.

Removal on the ward

Wire removal often happens outside theater. In that setting, a firm, non-slip grip matters most. Consequently, serrated jaws are a practical choice.
