Rochester-Pean Hemostatic Forceps, 6.25 Inch, Curved

Rochester-Pean hemostatic forceps are heavy-duty surgical clamps used for clamping large blood vessels, tissue bundles, and pedicles during surgical procedures. The fully serrated, curved jaws provide a secure grip across the full jaw length, making these forceps suitable for clamping larger structures where lighter hemostats would be insufficient. The 6.25-inch curved configuration allows for improved access and visibility in deeper tissue planes. The ratcheted ring handle provides controlled, hands-free holding during procedures. Constructed from stainless steel for durability and compatibility with standard autoclave sterilization.

Ideal For

Surgeons and surgical technologists performing open surgical procedures requiring clamping of large blood vessels, tissue pedicles, or vascular structures will find the Rochester-Pean forceps a reliable heavy-duty hemostat for these demanding applications. General surgery, gynecology, and urology teams that routinely clamp large tissue bundles during dissection and ligation will benefit from the fully serrated jaws and curved configuration for secure, controlled clamping in deeper anatomical areas. Surgical instrument sets for major open procedures commonly include Rochester-Pean forceps as a standard heavy hemostat alongside lighter clamps such as Kelly or Crile forceps for smaller vessel work. Central sterile supply departments managing instrument reprocessing will find the stainless steel construction straightforward to clean, inspect, and autoclave between uses.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Rochester-Pean and Kelly or Crile forceps?
Rochester-Pean forceps are larger, heavier hemostats with fully serrated jaws designed for clamping large blood vessels, tissue bundles, and pedicles. Kelly forceps are lighter and have jaws that are only half-serrated, making them better suited for smaller vessels and delicate tissue. Crile forceps are similar to Kelly but fully serrated, and are a mid-weight option between Kelly and Rochester-Pean. Choose based on the size and type of structure being clamped.

What does curved mean for hemostatic forceps?
Curved forceps have jaws that angle away from the handle, allowing the surgeon to follow the natural contour of tissue planes and improve visibility during clamping in deeper or angled anatomical areas. Straight forceps are used for more direct, surface-level clamping tasks.

Are these autoclavable?
Yes. Stainless steel surgical forceps are compatible with standard autoclave sterilization. Follow your facility's sterilization protocols and inspect the instrument for wear, jaw damage, or ratchet failure before each use.

Are these reusable?
Yes. These are reusable stainless steel instruments designed for repeated use with proper cleaning, inspection, and sterilization between procedures.
