Titanium Locking Plier

Description

Titanium Locking Plier

This titanium locking plier belongs to the membrane stage of guided bone regeneration. The supplier catalogue lists it in its membrane instruments, beside a tissue graft forceps and a membrane punch. Its job is to hold something small and keep holding it. It comes in one size, so ordering is simple.

What the Lock Adds

A regular forceps relies on constant finger pressure. Once you relax, the grip opens. A locking plier, by contrast, stays closed until you release it. So you can set it down, trim the membrane, or pass it to an assistant without losing your hold. That frees your hands at a fiddly moment.

Why Titanium Here

As its name states, this plier is titanium. Membrane work often involves titanium pins, screws or reinforced barriers. Using a titanium tool in that setting keeps the metals on your tray consistent. It is also a lighter metal than steel, which some clinicians notice during long grafting cases.

Where It Fits in a Grafting Case

First, size and hydrate the membrane as your protocol directs. Next, lock it in the plier and trim the edges to shape. Then carry it to the site and hold it steady while you place fixation. Finally, release the lock once the membrane is secure.

Our steel range meets ASTM F899; this plier, however, is titanium, as its name says. Regardless of metal, it receives the same inspection in the United States before shipping. Coverage spans three years against manufacturing defects affecting the lock or titanium jaws.
