Additional product details

• Engineered for maximum adaptability, the 5235-4-100 serves as a "force-multiplier" in the operating room.
• Manufacturer: Stryker (Howmedica Osteonics)
• Product Type: Universal Forceps (Modular)
• Mechanism: Multi-position Ratchet Lock
• Included: Modular Attachments (as shown in documentation)
• Cleaning: Fully Autoclavable / Reusable
• Modular Versatility: The 5235-4-100 is designed to accept a variety of interchangeable attachments. This allows the surgical team to transition from a bone-holding configuration to a plate-positioning or compression setup without changing the primary instrument body.
• 10-Inch High-Leverage Reach: The elongated handles provide the mechanical advantage required to reduce displaced fractures in the femur, tibia, or pelvis.
• Precision Ratchet Lock: The heavy-duty ratchet mechanism allows for "set-and-forget" stabilization. Once the desired compression or grip is achieved, the forceps maintain the tension effortlessly, allowing the surgeon to focus on drill-and-screw placement.
• Ergonomic Force Transmission: The handle geometry is contoured to distribute clamping pressure across the palm, reducing hand fatigue during complex multi-fragment reconstructions.
• Howmedica Industrial Durability: Known for their "over-engineered" structural integrity, these Stryker/Howmedica forceps maintain their pivot alignment and jaw parallelism through decades of rigorous trauma and orthopedic use.
• Orthopedic Trauma: Reduction and stabilization of long-bone fractures (femur, tibia, humerus).
• Pelvic & Acetabular Surgery: High-torque stabilization of complex pelvic rings.
• Reconstructive Surgery: Maintaining compression during large-segment osteotomies or bone grafting.
• General Orthopedics: Acting as a "third hand" for plate positioning and temporary internal fixation.
• Status: Used – Good Condition.
• Maintenance: This instrument shows visible signs of professional cosmetic use (minor surface scuffs or "tray wear" consistent with standard hospital processing), but it remains fully functional. The modular attachment points are secure, the ratchet locks are crisp, and the stainless steel frame is perfectly aligned.
